Word of advise: many Danes are not amused at all when you use the word kamelåså. I dont't know if it is because it hits too close to home, or if the joke is wearing thin from too much repetition. :-)
While written Danish is relatively close to both Swedish and Norwegian, the pronunciation is significantly removed. This is most likely due to the printing press arriving too early and locking down the orthography rules while the spoken language was still evolving massively (similar to the GVS in English).
It takes a significant effort for foreigners to understand the relationship between written and spoken Danish.
