Language lessons or should I say Jag heter David!

Today I jumped right into learning Swedish and to show you how serious I am about this documenting my progress idea I've put my very first few sentences on youtube!

I feel this is so embarrassing that I should have put it under the "Comedy" category, but I figured I will only get your attention if you get to mock me :)

I have contacted a few local language schools and I have already heard back from one of them. By the looks of it they will teach an entry level Swedish course in the near future! But while I'm waiting for that I figured I may as well start by watching a few youtube videos and try to pick up some of the more frequent words :)

My first Swedish lesson and the reward!
That being said I did quite enjoy the experience. And since every good deed deserves a reward, I awarded myself another special beer - learning has never been so fun!

So, tell me: how did I do? Leave a comment if you did or didn't understand what I was saying in the video! Oh and if you know about a good Swedish resource on the web, please let me know!

If you want the inside scoop, that is my first youtube video as well so if everything else is wrong, at least I learned how to upload videos to youtube!

  1. Thats awesome! Not to be unexpected there is a pretty heavy accent but that's normal.

    Lycka till!

  2. Is it only me, or do you already have Swedish accent when you speak English? :)
