    Why don't you ask the local Swedes? Judging by your node address
    you are in Munich H�rselbergstr. office, there are (at least) two
    born Swedes in this building... (no, not me).

    Hmmmm... maybe you could try one of the other Munich Swedes. Or
    try the STK01::SVENSKA conference which dicusses the Swedish language
    - it's all in Swedish but I'm sure they'd be happy to answer queries
    in English too.
    
    Where have all the Swedish visitors disappeared from this conference?

    Are you sure she doesn't understand English good enough to read
    a letter?
    
    Most Swedes study English in school for 9 years, which is not always
    seen in our spelling and grammatics...

    If there aren't any other volunteers, you can send your letter to
    me to be translated.  I'm just a about two-lingual (finnish-swedish)
    and I know some english, too.

298.7thanx to allPEARS::LITPHASThu Oct 20 1988 09:0619
    thanx for the offers. The letter is sent and I got a real positive
    feedback.
    
    re.:-2
    the problem was, that I had to fix a meeting-point over there in
    London. So I wanted to be sure that there are no misunderstandings
    , resulting from different languages.
    
    BTW- you have not always only to speak with girl....
    But in this case the language was important.
    
    OK, thanx once more to all. I'll came back to this notes file, if
    I need tips for GOETEBORG in the late november.
    
    
    See you
