I've never spoken Swedish with anyone (jag gjorde mitt bästa)

This is what I do in my spare time... learn languages. However, I rarely focus on speaking. As a "calligrapher", I prefer reading and writing. But, it was starting to feel weird that I had never spoken Swedish with anyone before, because I consume it so much now. So I made a new goal to speak more.

I know that most people are afraid of speaking another language. But I am the CAPTAIN of that fear. I need to get over that, so this video is part of my strategy. I did my best.

Om du är svensk, förlåt. Berätta för mig hur många misstag jag gjorde... jag kommer leva. Roast me in the comments 😭😭

I'm Swedish and I'm very impressed! Your pronunciation was super good! I understood everything without having to read the subtitles. It's amazing that you've gotten so good considering you say you have no one with whom you can practise speaking.

There were a few grammar mistakes here and there, but I'd consider them minor mistakes since I understood you perfectly anyway.

[dbdecibel]

Wow as a Dane I understand you very well. You are very good at learning languages, keep it up you are fantastic.

[Svíþjóð-]

Jätte duktig! Förstår dig väldigt bra. Har pluggat Tyska både på fritiden och när jag gick i skolan och har även lärt mig lite Isländska på fritiden.

Dude, you’re better at swedish than me soon. 😂 Skitbra jobbat, stolt över dig!

I'm FINALLY starting my asmr channel after years of obsession and was looking for some mic setup tips. I came across your video (which was great thank you so much) and then clicked this one. I love your voice and the quality of your videos! I hope to see this channel grow as I work on my own. You definitely deserve it!

This is a really inspirational video to show that a little bit of practice every day can make a big difference. If I could speak Swedish, I'd practice with your. I'm sure you'll find someone quickly now.

Damm I with my german, english and the fact that I live a the scadinavian border understand pretty much everything without even reading the subtitles. I am pretty impressed of myself, but probally also I understand so much, because I hear a lot of OV Sabaton Songs like: Gott mit Uns; En Livstid i Krig and Livgardet. Even if you may did some misses, which I don´t know, it was in my eyes super easy to follow and to understand everything. You can be proud of yourself.

sneaks into the back row. proud of you MIsty.

[Trexzo_]

Woah, impressive (Swede here) - while there were some minor mistakes I could understand everything you said

[aceofhearts]

I don't speak Swedish (though I do recognize some similarities, cause I speak German) but congrats on your pronunciation and on the courage to put this out there!

[Renne]

The funny thing is that swedish sounds pretty much like a strange dialect of the german language which it definitely isn't but in fact this is also the case when it comes to norwegian or danish. Sometimes I also seem to understand some swedish words without speaking it.

Har du aldrig talat svenska med en annan person? Det går ju jättebra! Jag förstod allt du sa.

[noctambule]

Whoa, din svenska är 10/10 och helt fantastisk ju! Du kanske inte hänger med i tv-program men du pratar som om du bott i Sverige i minst 20 år! Du kan nog vara en polyglott! Du har knappt någon accent, hade jag träffat dig i något sammanhang hade jag trott att du var från svensktalande delen av Finland eller kanske en norsk accent, men inte att du är från Kanada haha!

[cubosh]

i am going to trust you did not just put those captions over you making vaguely swedish noises

[Cerindor]

Jag tycker om att lära mig nya språk, jag är svensk, och pratar svenska, engelska och norska flytande. Jag kan göra mig förstådd på tyska. Tanken har aldrig slagit mig tidigare att börja med undertexter på andra språk för att lära mig dem.
Åker du/ni någonsin till Sverige/Stockholm - bjuder jag på fika!

[shanecanulette]

I’m just here for the name tracing but I can listen to some Swedish instead. Good job!!

[racingmars]

Detta är en kalligrafiström; kan du inte berätta?

I can't tell you if you messed up any words, because I know no Swedish! But always good to see you... and this reminds me that I *really* should start carving out some time each day to work on Latin.

[hub-edu]

It seem veeery close to english, is that right?
keep going!
