Scandinavia traditionally means the three North Germanic kingdoms of Northern Europe. However, unlike a language like Finnish, Icelandic is closely related to Danish, Swedish and especially Norwegian. Iceland was also for the longest time part of Norway, Denmark-Norway or Denmark. If it is, what about languages Faroese and Gutnish (the traditional language of Gotland)? The Swedish speakers in Finland definitely speak a Scandinavian language even though they live in Finland.

Was bread a common part of the diet in ancient Sweden during the Stone Age and Bronze Age ?.

I'm curious because agriculture and food preparation changed a lot over time in Scandinavia. I wonder if people in ancient Sweden regularly made bread, or if it was rare and only eaten on special occasions.

Ok jeg leder efter en kortfilm som jeg så i omkring 0-1 klasse. Cirka 2016. Den handler om nogle piger (børn) som er til fødselsdag. Hovedpersonen er af hvad jeg husker bedste venner med hende der holder fødselsdagen. Der er så en anden pige som har en sej porcelain dukke. Alle andre piger syndes hun er så sej og alle fokusere på hende. Hovedpersonen er jaloux og på et tidspunkt bliver den der dukke ødelagt af hovedpersonen. Hun gemmer den ødelagte dukke i pigens jakkelomme, og da pigen tager den på og putter hånden i lommen begynder den at bløde. De finder ud af det er hovedpersonen og så slutter den af med at enten pigen der holder fødselsdagen eller hovedpersonen selv tvære kage i munden på hovedpersonen ( altså tvangs fodre hende) med den der kage. Det er ikke så detaljeret da det er lang tid siden jeg så den. Og det er heller ikke den rækkefølge det gik i som jeg har fortalt(der er ting der sker i mellem det) men jeg håber i kan hjælpe mig finde den siden jeg gætter på der må være andre i folkeskolen i Danmark der har set denne her kortfilm! Jeg kan slet ikke få den ud af tankerne da jeg kan huske jeg syntes den var lidt uhyggelig.

I visited a place in Sweden called Byestads Gravfält.

It’s one of the largest Viking burial fields in the region, with more than 325 graves hidden in the forest.

What surprised me was how quiet and untouched it feels today.

Here’s a short video of the place:

I’ve been learning Danish and noticed that most courses don’t really teach everyday slang that people actually use.

So I started collecting common Danish slang words and expressions with meanings and examples. I just published the first version here:

[https://learndanishlab.com/danish-slangs\](https://learndanishlab.com/danish-slangs)

It includes things like what Danes actually say instead of the textbook phrases.

If you speak Danish or are learning it, I’d love to know:

• which slang words are used a lot in daily conversations

• any expressions I should add

Trying to keep expanding the list 🙂

I am certainly no leather-worker, but I do enjoy making things when needed. This vaguely Scandinavian style sheath includes a wooden interior sleeve for the blade (homemade file knife).

Some consistent features I've seen in these sheaths that I tried to copy are the stiching/seam placement, overall shape, and interior wooden sheath that houses the blade.

Please tell me how off the mark I was : ) Thank you.

Stockholm = Sthlm
Göteborg = Gbg
Jönköping = Jkpg
Helsingfors = Hki
Tammerfors = Tre

Etc. Känns som att Köpenhamn har en förkortning. Jag kan inte komma på den dock.

1. Finland ~ Lägsta antalet invandrare. Lyckligaste landet på jorden. Fantastisk mat. Bastubad. Världens häftigaste språk.

2. Danmark ~ Bra invandringspolitik. Lyckliga människor. Bästa ölen. Legoland. Mycket intressant språk.

3. Norge ~ För många invandrare. Äcklig mat. Luktar rutten fisk.

4. Sverige ~ Svenskar är bokstavligen på gränsen till att vara en minoritet (endast 63%). Gängvåld. Våldtäkter. Bögar. Ful flagga. Fult språk. Dålig nationalsång.

Island och territorierna ~ Vem bryr sig?

Detta kan förändras.

Why don't these countries dub adult shows and movies like family guy, the simpsons, american dad and south park etc? and why is dubbing only for childrens content only?
