Hi I am Chris from Germany 🇩🇪 and I love to learn everything about different countries, cultures and people. On this channel I try to get know beautiful Sweden 🇸🇪 and it's people. I hope you enjoy watching and let's learn together. See you in the next video 😉.
Feel free to send to me video recommendations. It would be great, if you could indicate video recommendations with a Sweden-Flag 🇸🇪 in the subject line. Thank you :)
Yea some of the songwriters are famous, but then there are alot of people in younger years creating music, one can get a place ro rehearse in most twons at almost no cost, i think that is the reason alot of people start doing music simply because one can try it at almost no cost. Some get stuck doing it and develop into really talented musicians.
In Stockholm you get around 6 hours of daylight in January, as a comparison. A little better. I live 200 km south of Stockholm and to me, winters are getting tougher on my mental health every year. I force myself to go out midday for a hint of daylight even if the weather is bad. If you’re out of luck you won’t see the sun for a week or so during weekdays. We usually don’t have that much snow as in Joanna’s video down here, and that’s a bit depressing. The white snow reflects light and make the surroundings feel bright and not so winter gloomy. I def prefer that. I eat vitamin d supplements, but I’m not sure how well they work. I try to keep up the routine of working out during winter, but sometimes it’s hard. Lacking daylight and sunlight makes you have less energy in general. I guess it differs for everyone but for me it’s hard. A guaranteed “medicine” for this is to travel to somewhere warmer and charge your batteries. I know it’s not good for the climate, but what the h*ll should I do? 😂
"the referee is a homophobe" was the wording on that soccer chant, i belive. But heck, i'm a 2nd gen immigrant, so wtf do i know about this weird language we speak.
If Sweden hadn't chosen neutrality, Danish, Norwegian and Finnish refugees wouldn't have been able to survive. Instead it provided a safe haven for all the Nordic countries, which in the end saved more lives than the opposite would have done.
Sweden really didnt have much choice but try stay neutral since Germany could basically invade Sweden and take it at any time at the early years. Later in the war they mire and more helped the allies. As for Finland they was part of Sweden for almost 700 years from around 1150 until the Finnish War of 1809 after which Finland became an autonomous part of the Russian Empire as the Grand Duchy of Finland. During all these years Swedish was learnt along their native language finnish. Even today many in Finland talk Swedish and Finnish. In Sweden many see Finland ss their brother/sister country!
6:50 Let's put it this way, kids in the north of Sweden don't miss a school day because there is snow outside. I remember living in Berlin when there was some snow coming and parents got scared. They'll skii to school. Roads out, fine.
When it comes to the pronunciation of the letter G, in Swedish we have the concept of hard and soft vowels. The soft vowels are E, I, Y, Ä, and Ö, while the hard vowels are A, O, U, and Å. These vowels deterrent how the consonant that proceeds them should be pronounced så for example they said Götaland and you heard then huw the G was pronounced, they also said Gamla stan (the Old Town) and the G was pronounced differently. If you for example say the word Kyrka (Church) the K is pronounced like the Ch in English, while the word Kaffe (Coffee) the K is harder.
Yup, Spotify was made by 2 Swedish people, you probably thinking of Skype, Skype was created by Niklas Zennström (Swedish), Janus Friis (Danish), and four Estonian developers.
Vore intressant att jämföra Norden. Sverige har varit storebror tills Socialdemokraterna gjorde avtal med muslimska rådet på 90talet. Innan dess var vi innavotörer. Danmark, Norge och Finland ligger långt bakom vår innovation men de förstod att Islam måste bromsas. Sveriges största parti såg istället fler väljare. Snacka om att hotet mot demokratin startade redan på 60talet i Sverige!
How is it strange to eat animals, drink their milk? A sheep or cow is ok to eat, drink but eat moos, reindeer is not. It is like muslims dont eat pigs. What animals in UK is ok to eat? UK has a lot to learn about Europe, obviesley.
1:37 i dont live in stockholm, we all non stockholmare hate stockholm. But far fewer people live up north, that is right. The reason we have so little people is likely because they just can't handle -10/-20.
I live in the north of sweden and i think it depends on if you are in the south ore north of sweden and if you are in a citty. Becouse its esier if you are in a bigger citty then if you are in a smole citty, ore outside of a citty
