Imagine reading “Around the World in Eighty Days” in Danish – and understanding every page

“Around the World in Eighty Days” (in Danish: “Jorden rundt i 80 dage”, orig. Around the World in Eighty Day) by Jules Verne – is a complete, engaging story specially adapted to the B2 (upper intermediate) level. You don't need to know every word. You'll understand 95% of the text immediately, and every new word is explained in the margin. You simply read – and learn naturally.

What is this book about?

  • Phileas Fogg wagers his fortune that he can circumnavigate the world in eighty days.
  • He and his valet Passepartout face constant peril, unexpected delays, and the relentless pursuit of Detective Fix.
  • Amidst their global dash, they rescue the Indian princess Aouda, adding a poignant human element to their journey.

Why does this work better than apps and textbooks?

Our books are based on the Pentecost Method – the only approach 100% based on scientific research into language learning. The result? You learn faster, remember more, and actually enjoy learning.

  • Read without interruption: Translations of the most difficult words are found in the margin of each page – you don't have to break away from the story to look them up in a dictionary.
  • Consolidate what you've read: After each chapter, exercises (crosswords, gap-fills, anagrams) tailored to the B2 level await – new words stick in your mind.
  • Learn anywhere: A mobile app with games allows you to review vocabulary on your way to work, in a queue, or wherever you have a moment.
  • Build lasting vocabulary: Flashcards at the end of the book allow you to systematically review the most important words – so you don't forget what you've learned.

How many people speak it

Danish has about 6 million native speakers, chiefly in Denmark and Greenland, with smaller communities in northern Germany.

Grammar and structure
