   • 2009, Lotte Garbers, Prøverummet, page 105:

     Nete havde i den grad syntes, at han var en bonderøv. Han gik på lærerseminariet i Haslev, han var uden kæreste, og han så ikke ud, som om han var blevet klippet, siden hun var flyttet efter deres sommer sammen.

     Nete had certainly thought that he was a boor. He attended the teacher school in Haslev, he had no lover, and he did no appear to have had a haircut since she had moved away after their summer together.

   • 2012, Anna Grue, De andre, 8:

     "Hjørring? Ha! Der kommer bonderøvene fra."

     "Hjørring? Ha! Thence come the boors."
