The French "uh" seems to be more of a "euh" in my experience...

Not at all. Compared to the other nordic languages, danish is quite dificult. Taking on an obscure language from a small country up north is in itself an admirable quest.

Good luck!

Because I happen to know alot of Russians and because I don't find it that boring. French on the other hand... bores the hell out of me.

I doubt you can translate Québecois if you don't even know what maudit means. I figured with your attitude somebody in France must have called you a "maudit anglais".
