Works in English too: * I am Danish. * I am a Danish. Or * I am dancer. * I am a dancer.

  “I am dancer” is acceptable if you’re a five year old. However “I’m Danish” is correct English

    In "I'm Danish" it's an adjective. With "I'm a Danish" it's a noun, stating you are a pastry.

      But only in US English!

      You can say “I’m Danish” or “I’m British”. If you want to use an article and convey the same meaning then it would be “I’m a Dane” or I’m a Brit”

        I think you missed the joke: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danish_pastry https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danish_pastry > A Danish pastry (sometimes shortened to Danish)
