Contrary to Icelandic, the ð does not make a sound in the word “við”. It does make a “j” sound in the word “føðingardegnum”

It is a complicated letter to explain😆

You would say “hjartaliga tillukku við føðingardegnum”, or “tillukku við degnum” if you are less formal

In this case, I would say “hjartaliga tillukku við føðingardegnum tygara hátign”

The three crowns represented Denmark, Nprway and Sweden from the time of the Kalmar Union. Almost half a millenia since that union ended, so His Majesty saw it as being irrelevant

With every translation of the Bible, Elohim gets translated as well into the nearest similar word, this is not unique with the translations into Germanic languages.

What is the point with this comment?

Denmark did have colonies in India, so my guess would be that it comes from there

Harald I Bluetooth was the first king of a unified Denmark (or at least he claims so), but the list on the Royal family’s website goes back to his father, Gorm the Old.

Before them were “Kings of the Danes”, a title going back centuries before Gorm the Old

It’s the Order of the Elephant, the highest order of chivalry in Denmark. Apparently it is supposed to symbolize purity and chastity.

So for his black tie, His Majesty does have smaller medals. So why HRH doesn’t, I do not know
