I learned basic to intermediate spanish in about 2 months with just a textbook and a couple of workbooks, but you might also want to try some tapes or something, but swedish isnt one of your mainstream languages so it might be hard to find materials for. I did it because I didnt want to waste a period on spanish 1 or 2 at school so I just learned it on my own and took third year spanish this year without ever having taken a class on it before, and I was at or above the level of most other kids in my class who had taken 2 full years. I think you could probably learn a language better on your own that at school.

oh man... one night we were just drivin' in Doug's van and for some reason we broke out into singing the Canadian anthem, than when we were done Joahn sung the Swedish anthem - it sounded cool...


and yea - that's the main reason why I wanna learn some swedish (to yeti). it's just that much easier to pick up chicks if you can speak their language... don't want Johan translating everything for me, than he can't get tail himself, and that's no fun.

For some reason, my Drama class broke into the American national anthem today... It was funny. A bunch of highschool Canadian kids trying to sing the American national anthem... It came from nowhere... lol

my dad tried to teach me a bit growing up. I don't remember any of it. Only the ones he used the most, which were swear words.

yeah those tape/book deals actually work
my friend used one before going on exchange...
it is a loooong boring process though.

i think your best option is to get illegal sattelite from sweeden and watch a lot of tv.
