I want to learn Swedish, and I was wondering whether someone else here has similar ambitions...
I went to a course for a year, in the end of 2008 and start of 2009. After that, because of the lack of interested students, the course disappeared, never to appear again... So I decided to keep track of it and continue learning on my own.
I'm not sure how much do I know now. But I understand a lot and I consider it to be a very easy language to learn.
Yesterday, my mother brought me a book on Swedish, brought right from Göteborg, by a friend of her friend. Well, pity, it's called "PS jag älskar dig", which is really not mine stuff, but she didn't know the woman who went to Sweden so she couldn't explain what do I like. However, I tried to read it and it's not that hard.

You know, my favourite word in Swedish is actually island.. Ö. Epic.

i am not goin to learn it so i hope you will while we will be in Sweden

I would like to learn Swedish, along with a lot of other languages. Except I haven't found the time yet, and I'm not sure there are evening classes here that offer Swedish. I like learning languages, other languages, besides Swedish) on my list of "to learn" are Italian, Russian, Spanish, Arabian, Chinese, ... and I'd like to improve my Latin again (except that's even more difficult to find, Latin courses).

Why the hell would you learn Arabic? But that's nice! I'd also like to learn many, many languages, but I don't want to do it just like that, I will first bring my German and Swedish to perfection and then go on. I want to learn Romanian. (have passion for weird languages)
I've been learning Latin in school last year, but since I'm going to high school, the "direction", "section", whatever the word is, "science-maths class", we don't need Latin in the second year as well. Others do, though. It was boring in school, but now I'd also like to remind myself of what I knew last year and learn some more...

I'd like to learn Arabic so I can understand what the hell they're singing about in the songs we use for Bellydance And saying that, I'd also like to learn Hindi, haha, at least then I might have a chance at properly learning how to dance Bollywood style! We once had a workshop Bollywood, I loved it

Oh, so that's the reason. Well, don't give it up then! You'll be an interesting Belgian who speaks Arabic and Hindi!
I'd love to learn all Scandinavian languages, but the thing is, they're all so similar and I have a terrible fear that I'll mix them up and forget how to speak Swedish properly..

I'm not sure yet if there would be a place near here that'd teach Hindi though, so I guess I'll focus on the other languages on my list for now

And yes, Norwegian and Swedish seem quite similar, could get confusing

Exactly, that's the problem.

About Hindi, why don't you try learning on your own? It sometimes work, before you find a place where you could get lessons or something. That's how I built foundations of my Swedish - on my own, with a dictionary and grammar...

That is a possibility, true Have already tried that with Italian, so far I have not gotten as far as I had hoped (but maybe I should put just a little more time in it )
