[QUOTE="Staffan, post: 262865, member: 907"] Växjö, Sweden. That's about 200 km north of Copenhagen, Denmark. Swedish. No significant dialect. Swedish and English, with a wee bit of French I learned in school many years ago and have now forgotten most of. I like to think I'm quite competent in English, at least as far as reading/writing/listening is concerned. I do speak with a noticable accent, and finding the proper word to use can take some time (which isn't noticable when I write). At the gaming table, we usually use Swedish with a smattering of English for game terms and names. A reverse example would be "... and the wizard casts an Eldklot at that point, for 40 points of damage. Roll a Reflex-Räddningsslag versus SG 19 for half." When I play online, we use English all the way. Most of the games I play are in English. There are a few Swedish RPGs, but none of the ones currently on the market appeal to me. We do have sort of a gaming store here in town, though it's more of a CCG/miniatures/horror action figures/guitar store with a bit of RPG stuff too. Their selection isn't all that good - they carry the Swedish RPGs, and some stuff for D&D and various White Wolf games. Beyond that, they can take special orders for other stuff. There are also a few mail order stores operating in Sweden. I usually go for either Hobbygames.se or sfbok.se. [/QUOTE]
