they speak swedish in sweden. In Switzerland they speak german, french, italian, ancient roman, and probably english now.
Canada, for the clean environment, great hunting and fishing, non-aggressive government, higher standard of living, and excellent healthcare system.
haha I was just looking into the study abroad program to try to find out the language they speak. For reason I thought Switzerland was Finland, thats right next to Sweden douche
On a twist: If you had all the money you ever needed, would you live in the US. Personally, I would not.
They speak several languages because Switzerland borders several countries. French, German, Italian, and everyone can speak English. You wouldn't encounter any language barrier if you visited.
Norway has the strangest speech pattern I have ever heard. You know how when you are surprised you make a noise by drawing your breath in - like a "Uhhh" in reverse with the air drawn into your mouth? Apparently they use as "yes" or "ok" there. I was talking to someone at the car rental agency and she did it to agree with me - and it surprised the heck out of me - did not know why she was so upset and startled. As we went north we found out that around mid-country it changes to "Uhhh"-ahah and up north it becomes "Uhhh"-Yo. Mind bending, I tell you. Very pretty country - but too cold for me. I need someplace nice and warm with a great beach. A Greek island is cool - but maybe the Island Lamu, near Kenya - is the place for me.
My top 5, in somewhat of an order 1. Switzerland 2. Norway 3. Iceland 4. Germany 5. Bora Bora Hmm, what is missing from all of the top places to live in the world??????
They speak Finnish, Swedish and English in Finland. Stick to the latter two; Finnish is a language that bears no relation to anything you've ever heard.
Man, I would. The only difference is that I'd live in Portland year 'round instead of splitting time in Denver.
Australia for me. I like the accent and get along well with every Aussie I've met (although I haven't visited; maybe all of the assholes never travel) and the beaches look fantastic. Ed O.
