what the difirence between bra and gud?
wat is het verschil tussen bra en gud?
Posted by MindStorm
bra = good, decent, fine!
gud = God [the Father]
god = good, kind, nice
"Det är en bra film" = "It's a good movie"
"Jordgubbarna är goda" = "The strawberries tastes well"

"How do you pronounce these words?" = "Hoe spreek je deze woorden uit?"
I'm talking about "är" and things like that... :s
Posted by MindStorm
Now that is a tricky one!
(Even if it can't be as tricky as pronouncing your strange spellings! )
"Är" is equal to "is" and comes from "att vara" (To be).
It should be pronounced something like... the english word
"air"
You know, we have Å Ä and Ö, just to make our language more funkier.
Haven't you seen the "swedish chef" at the Muppet show?
Posted by Vlammetje
Å is pronounced like a looong deeep OOO sounds (heavy sound) which we do not have in Dutch.
Finally a use for the things I learnt while in helsinki.
Btw I've been to Finnish Archipelago (Nauro) and it's very beautiful there

I'm fine, thanks! Thanks ..?..! How are you?
More correct Swedish would be "Jag mår bara bra". The middle expression I'm not really sure of what you meant.
Crash course in Norwegian:
T sekshundre og ti er en råbra mobiltelefon. Men skjermen er lite lesbar i sollys. Jeg skal aldri kjøpe en nokiatelefon.
Answer further down:
T sixhundred and ten is a damned good mobile phone. But the screen is hard to read in sunlight. I will never buy a Nokia phone.

Thanks Kristian :-) Now go and get your Swedish buddies over here :-D
Posted by kristaga
NB!! The worst thing you can do to insult a Norwegian is to call him a Swede. I see that you did not, but it was close...
To insult a Swede you might ask them how many medals their Nordic skiers have won the last ten years...
I wont ask...

Kristian > now teach us how to say that in Swedish, and we learned a new lesson: how to insult a Suede ;-)
Posted by bart

en hoe geven we complimentjes aan zweden?
Posted by dragontrumpetare
I am here....I am swedish.... And I hate the Norwegian skiing wonder* lol* And I hate FINland and NOKIA * just kidding*
Well Tack sa aint good swedish.
Posted by MaThIbUs
Eh... What should we say then instead?
Posted by dragontrumpetare
Actually I dont know. I guess its okey with just Thank you? "Tack så mycket"
Posted by MaThIbUs
Tack sa micket! = Dank je wel
Posted by dragontrumpetare
@Mathibus
Not "micket" but "mycket".... But otherwise it was great.
Är det någon sol i Nederländerna nu för tiden?
translation: Is there any sun in the Netherlands now this days?
Posted by Vlammetje
Answer: yes there is! = Jazeker!
The weather is lovely = Het is heerlijk weer.
Tack så mycket? Thanks so much?? does swedish have ø or ö or both?
Don't diss Finland i lived there for a bit!
Posted by dragontrumpetare
we only have Ö.... not the o with a line right through.
And that word you wrote heerlijk sounds like the swedish word "härligt"
Posted by MaThIbUs
In Belgium the sun is shining too = In Belgie schijnt het zonnetje ook
Posted by kristaga
The difference between 'ø' and 'ö' originates from a font difference. It is the exact same sound, like the German 'ö'. Norwegian, Danish and Faroese use 'ø'. Swedish and Icelandic use 'ö'.
In addition to this letter Swedish use 'ä' where Norwegian and Danish use 'æ'. Icelandic also use 'æ', but it is pronounced differently.
And last, N., D. and S. all uses 'å'. The letter 'á' equals 'å' in Faroese and Icelandic, but are pronounced differently.
I have not mentioned Finnish here since it isn't a Nordic language (even though it is spoken in the Nordic area). Finnish is closer related to Hungarian than the Nordic languages. The five Sami languages and Estonian are in the same language group as Finnish. They are very different languages compaired to ours (Dutch, Norwegian or Swedish), the fact that Finnish has 16 cases (kasus) scares a lot of people away from learning it.

Like i said I lived there, so i know a little of the challenges of learning Finnish
Helsinki btw is officially bi-lingual (finnish and swedish), hence my fast-developped skills of reading swedish newspapers
Posted by kristaga
Good things about Finnish are as far as I know no difference between sexes (no 'him' or 'her'). No prepositions (preposisjoner), the cases deal with that. Always funny when Finns without practise in Swedish/Norwegian says about a girl: I will walk over and talk to him...
This thread should perhaps be placed in the mobile free area, or in the garbage threads?
How to please a Swede: Ask him/her about their national ice hockey team (called "Tre Kronor" [three crowns]). Something like this (I understand Swedish, but have never learnt [to write] it): "Så det går jättebra med Tre Kronor om dagen?"

Well Norwegish is almost like a swedish Dialect *lol* Just kidding.... but is a real close...
Posted by MindStorm
Hi! I'm back! My damn broadband-internetconnection has went down completely, so I had to wait for work to visit esato!
See that this thread has grown quick!
And also that we have some
Norweigian friends here! Always nice to see! Even though SVerige of course is a whole lot better than Norge in almost everything!
Update on situation in Stockholm/Sweden today:
Varmt och soligt. Temperaturen väntas bli +26C under eftermiddagen.
Warm and sunny. Temperature is expected to be +26C during the afternoon.
Jag har extremt tråkigt på jobbet, och skulle hellre sitta på en båt ute
i skärgården just nu.
I'm extremely bored here at work, and would rather be on a boat out in the archipelago right now...
Cheers!
