The recent post about Denmark got me remembering...  Can someone point me to a place where I can find Danish pronunciation examples online?  How about regional pronunciations?

A Danish friend comes from a part of the country where many consonants are only faintly pronounced.  He demonstrated his grandparents' rural pronunciation with the Dansk

it's certainly a different pronunciation than what is spoken in Copenhagen and taught as standard Danish

When I learnt Danish in Odense (on Funen) we were essentially told that there is no 'standard Danish' in terms of accent, as there is in the UK for English. There is a standard grammar and a range of mutually comprehensible accents that use it (with different stereotypes about the speakers!), and a range of dialects of greater or lesser comprenhensibility, but that practically everyone but the Queen had a regional accent. I certainly find the Odense accent the easiest to understand, having the most experience of it, but I didn't have a problem with comprehension in Sjelland or Jutland, though my Danish was hardly advanced. The only people who spoke standard Danish that I knew were the girl from south Jutland whose first language was Jysk, and the girl from the Faroes.
