The kind of person who will talk to you if you are near me if there is something I think is worth the small talk.

    UGH! NY (Including Staten Island) and Boston accents can just go away! They are terrible!

    I have no problem with that requirement. The journey to learn the language would not be easy (I have never learned a second language) but I would be willing. It is only fair that I learn the nations language. The same would apply if I decided to move to Germany as well.

    Is it weird I find English and Romance language accents to be the sexiest?

    There's a lot of vowels in some other Germanic languages and Russian that turn me off.

    It's only made harder because people you talk to one-to-one will often switch to english because it's easier to talk in english with someone who can't speak swedish good <.< But then if you're out with groups, they will default to Swedish all the time and you won't be able to keep up cuz they always talk english one-to-one.

    English can be a very pretty language with the right combination of words. I find it to be the best language for Lyrics.

    That would actually be very helpful. If many Swedes speak English, they can understand what I am trying to say, and correct my mistakes = D

    Eeeeeeeh. I've tried helping @Xanjori with it but I can't really explain why something is supposed to be the way it is. I've grown up with the language, I just know what's right and wrong when speaking. >.<
