Danish term or phrase: hold da fast
Jeg har haft sådan en periode siden vi startede, hvor jeg synes ’ hold da fast, hvor har det været hårdt at starte det her op.
Harry
English translation:[expletive expressing exasperation]
Explanation:
It's Danish>English.

Literally, it means 'hold on', but I would use something like 'my God' or 'damn' -- only not as strong.

Sentence could be 'My, It has been hard work getting this on the way'.
