Danish really is a strange language. As this graphic shows, the Danish word "nå" has 12 different meanings, if not more.
You may think that cannot be true, but as a Dane I can confirm this is no exaggeration.
It is all about various tonal changes in the pronounciation, but essentially it is the same word used for 12 different meanings. Not unlike how "right" can both be a direction or the opposite of wrong or an expression of disbelief as in "Riiiiiiiight".
