You don't have å in the German alphabet, but you have ä and ö.

I just got an email with amazing pictures in it (one of those forward things) and the first picture is of a bridge between Sweden and Denmark that is partially underwater...Is this really true (I can't look it up at the moment)...How beautiful if it is. I dig it!

Yes it's true Deesh. Öresundsbron (the Öresund bridge) turns into a tunnel under the Drogden strait.

haha ! men om jag ska vara ärlig så tycker jag inte att det finns 'svensk' humor.. man ska inte döma alla bara för att några ex. svenska komedier är tråkiga ... men det finns säkert många med dålig humor i Sverige, men come on! det är inte bara Svennar som är tråkiga

Den "svenska humor" som finns är väl egentligen när man driver med typiskt svenska fenomen. Tex Lasse Åbergs Sällskapsresan med grisfest och sangria, packade svenska turister som skall köpa billig sprit, som måste ha "svenskt" kaffe (lol) och knäckebröd på sin 1-veckas semester etc.
Om temat hade varit lagerstinna engelsmän som går runt i fotbollströjor och spenderar semesterkvällarna på en pub framför TV'n med engelsk fotboll och såpor typ Coronation Street blir det ju plötsligt "engelsk humor". Men... när det väl kommer till kritan är det ju egentligen samma sorts humor. Dvs skämt som driver med ett specifikt fenomen som är typiskt för ett land och dess innevånare.
Nu är ju brittisk och svensk humor ganska snarlik trots allt, så det var kanske ett dåligt exempel. Det finns givetvis många saker som upplevs som roligt i större delen av världen. Men det finns också saker som upplevs som roligt i ett land men mindre roligt, kanske till och med förolämpande i andra.
Sen finns det ju både bra och dålig humor, roliga och dåliga skämt. Och vem kan säga vad som är vad? Det överlåter man nog bäst till den som "konsumerar" skämtet.

Swedish (svenska) is obviously the official language of Sweden. But we also have a few official minority languages.
The minority languages are:
Finnish (finska)
Meänkieli (Tornedalsfinska, a variation of Finnish spoken in the area called Tornedalen)
Lappish/Sami (samiska, spoken by the Samis... eg our native people living in the northern parts of Norway, Sweden, Finland and some parts of northern Russia)
Romani Chib (spoken by Romanis/Gypsies)
Jiddisch (Yiddish, spoken by some jews)

Det här kanske ligger lite untanför ämnet, men appropå språk kom jag att tänka på ett avsnitt av "Värsta språket" (tror jag det var  ). Det handlade om olika dialekter (kan det ha varit "Svenska dialektmysterier" istället....   ), bl.a en som inte lät ett dugg som svenska  . Man förstod inte ETT enda ord ( i alla fall inte jag ). Någon som minns eller vet vad det kan vara för dialekt?
