Helle: Goddag. Hvad kan jeg gøre for dig?

Theresa: Hej. Jeg åbnede en konto her i banken sidste år, men nu vil jeg gerne lukke den.

Helle: Okay. Må jeg spørge af hvilken grund?

Theresa: Jeg har ikke brug for min konto mere, da min mand og jeg ønsker en fælles konto.

Helle: Er din mand også kunde her i banken?

Theresa: Nej, det er han ikke.

Helle: Hvis I har lyst, kan jeg henvise jer til en rådgiver. Vi kan måske tilbyde jer en bedre rente.

Theresa: Min mand er bortrejst i øjeblikket, men jeg tror ikke, det bliver nødvendigt.

Helle: Han er vel ikke rejst bort for evigt? Du har ingen gæld, så I vil kunne indgå en god aftale.

Theresa: Nej, det er han forhåbentlig ikke. Men vi har taget beslutningen.

Helle: Okay. Vil du have udbetalt din saldo, eller har du et kontonummer, jeg skal overføre til?

Theresa: Der blev indbetalt nogle penge i mandags. Dem vil jeg gerne have udbetalt. Overfør resten.

Helle: Det er forstået. Det er altid godt at have lidt ekstra til sig selv.

----Formal English----

Helle: Hello. What can I do for you?

Theresa: Hello. I opened an account at this bank last year, but now I would like to close it.

Helle: Alright. May I ask for what reason?

Theresa: I don't need my account anymore, since my husband and I want a joint account.

Helle: Is your husband also a customer of this bank?

Theresa: No, he's not.

Helle: If you'd like, I can refer you to a consultant. We might be able to offer you a better interest rate.

Theresa: My husband is out of town at the moment, but I don't think it will be necessary.

Helle: He won't be away forever, will he? You don't have any debt so you'll be able to get a good deal.

Theresa: No, hopefully he isn't. But we've made the decision.

Helle: Alright. Do you want your balance paid out, or do you have an account number that I should transfer it to?

Theresa: Some money was paid into it last Monday. I would like to have that paid out. Transfer the rest.

Helle: Got it. It's always good to have a little extra for yourself.

Bornholm ligger i Østersøen på Danmarks østlige side.

Dens strategiske beliggenhed i havet har gjort det til et stridspunkt i flere århundreder.

Det meste af tiden har det været en del af Danmark, men tidligere har det også været en del af Sverige og Lübeck.

I øjeblikket er de største industrier på Bornholm kunsthåndværk, herunder keramik, glasproduktion, fiskeri og mejeribrug.

I løbet af sommeren er turisme også en stor industri.

Historien om øen daterer tilbage til det niende århundrede, og kampene om kontrollen af øen har varet det meste af dens historie.

Det blev en del af Danmark i det 9. århundrede efter konsolideringen af en række små, tidligere separate høvdingedømme.

Kontrollen over Bornholm vakte store uoverensstemmelser mellem den danske krone og bispen i Lund, da begge kæmpede for kontrol over denne strategiske position i Østersøen.

Øens første fæstning var Gamleborg, selv om det blev erstattet af fæstningen Lilleborg i 1150.

100 år senere byggede ærkebiskoppen i området, Hammershus, et privat fort på den anden side af Bornholm.

Det var fra denne fæstning, at en militær kampagne erobret resten af øen, herunder Lilleborg, blev erobret.

Forskellige parter fortsatte kampen over ejerskabet af øen i de næste to århundreder.

Øen var også af strategisk betydning i anden verdenskrig, da de sovjetiske tropper besatte øen.

Bornholm Island is located in the Baltic Sea on Denmark’s eastern side.

Its strategic location in the sea has made it a place of contention for centuries.

Most of the time it has remained part of Denmark, but in the past it has been part of Sweden and Lubeck as well.

Currently the biggest industries on Bornholm are arts and crafts, including pottery and glass making, fishing, and dairy farming.

During the summer, tourism is also a big industry.

The history of the island dates back at least to the 9th century, and the fighting over control of it has lasted for most of its history.

It became part of the historical Lands of Denmark in the 9th century after the consolidation of a number of small, previously separate chiefdoms.

Control of Bornholm became the focus of major disputes between the Danish crown and the See of Lund, and there were numerous battles between them as both sides fought for control of the strategic position in the Baltic Sea.

The island’s first fortress was Gamleborg, although it was replaced by the Lilleborg fortress in 1150.

Then 100 years later, the archbishop of the area built Hammershus, his own fortress on another part of Bornholm.

It was from that fortress that a military campaign in which the rest of the island, including Lilleborg, was conquered.

Various parties continued to battle over ownership of the island for the next two centuries.

The island was also of strategic significance in World War II when the Soviets occupied the island.
