Ya,the thing with Swedish,sometimes there are fifty words spoken to say something that can be said with one word. It's confusing as to why they even do it. There's the old dialect and the new one too,and that's confusing. There was an exchange student here one year who made friends with the daughter of a friend of mine,Dave. Dave's father had immigrated here from Sweden and spoke the old dialect. The Swedish girl was at their house one time and Dave told her to go up to his dad and start talking Swede to him. When he started speaking it back to her,she laughed at him and told him that he spoke like her grand father.
There were some Swedes here at a show that featured IH one time. They had a booth set up and Dave went up and started speaking Swedish to them. They laughed and said it sounded like he was talking baby talk. He said it was because his parents stopped speaking Swedish at home when he was five years old. My oldest uncle used to talk Swedish to Dave's dad all the time though.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
