"Dot" in Swedish is prick.
You're welcome.
what about shart.
Probably 3/3 Norwegian signs as mentioned.
Usually, in the context of traffic, the word 'Hastighet' would be used, which roughly works out to be 'Hastiness' in English.
I found a Swedish candy at World Market called Skum Bananer. I'm going to be calling bananas "banan/bananer" for a long time.
Foam banana doesn't sound appetizing tbh
They are so good though. Only proper use for artificial banana flavour ever.
It's a sort of marshmallows, shaped as bananas and coloured yellow. They're somewhat more firm - not as gooey and sticky as regular marshmallows.
Oh i know, i was having fun with direct translations π
The poster with βfartβ and a bus coming out of an explosion behind Keanu lmao
Sweden is very real.
The polish word for luck is either "szczΔΕcie" or the more casual "fart"
And kurva in swedish, nevermind...
Also Swedish: semester means 'a vacation' and gift means 'poison'
gift means poison in a lot of northern European languages, actually. Fun fact: that's because 'gift' (in the sense of 'present') was used as a euphemism for poison so much, the original meaning faded eventually
Being married is gift as well.

Last week i passed by the Danish city Middelfart.
Cries in chose to learn Finnish instead of Swedish/Norweigan/Danish
If you had tried for Danish you would be crying twice as hard. Unless you're like Geordie or Scottish, then you might have had a chance.
Saatan, perkele.
