Do you speak Swedish?
Swedish (svenska) is spoken by about 10 million people around the globe. It is the official language in Sweden, on the Åland Islands, and one of the two official languages in Finland. Swedish is spoken in countries as close to Sweden as Estonia, and as far away as Argentina, Nicaragua and the United States!
