In what temperature does the violin case have to be when a violin is inside there?
You should always have a violin kept at room temperature. Never too hot or too cold just like you would like it! You should never leave your violin in the car or especially outside, doing so will damage your violin and will get very expensive after taking it to a music store to get it fixed. You should always have your violin with you when your in the house just to know it will be safe when you leave the house you should keep it in a space you have already figured out for your violin to be it's home. I hope this helps and that you love your instrument!

Why did Albert Einstein play the violin?
Sir Albert Einstein's mother was the one who tried to get him to play the violin. I play the violin and I am very good at Science, the two go together in intelligence and consentration and theory. His mother thought he was mentally retarded so she tried to get him to play the violin to share a normal hobby as alot of children played the violin in the 19th century in Germany. Albert enjoyed playing Bach and Mozart as a child, I am not sure he went far in it as an adult, but he did have a club as an adolesence in which he would play violin to his friends. So this is why Albert Enstein played the violin.
***I would like to correct some information that was listed here. Albert Einstein did indeed play the violin. However, it was the school teachers who told Einstein's parents that he was "too stupid to learn". Albert's mother then had him begin violin lessons. He did continue to play up to and throughout his adult years. Below is an excellent link about not only Einstein but also the affects of music and the brain.

I think that for a non native speaker who wants to learn the language Danish, it will be difficult as Danish presents its own challenges. While the grammar does not present too many pitfalls, especially if you are already a seasoned language learner, the pronunciation is a different matter. It is a characteristically guttural language and is usually spoken at speed by the natives. Danish sounds are quite unique as they're often pronounced from the back of the throat. The language has the 'stød' which is a glottal thrust with the tongue represented in writing by the letter 'D'. The 'R' sound in Danish is also very guttural and difficult to get right.
