One thing is quite intresting in my country. People who come here is of course expected to learn the language, that is of quite obvious. Those who don't learn is often concidered to be unwilling to become a member of the society, and somewhat rude.
However some americans, or people from english speaking countries, think they can can go around and just speak englsih all the time, for some reason. But that can have something to do with that nearly everyone here understand the language and can talk it. But it's quite weird that some of them don't really care to learn the language. Most of them maybe do, but most of them have lived here for 2 years and more and have hard to time to even say the most simple sentence. Some of the enlgish speakers speak english speakers can uderstand swedish well, but they don't talk it. So it is quite odd to listen to such conversation.
One english guy, orginally from cornwall, which I worked with once spoke swedish. He had lived here for 7 years or something so it would be quite strange if he didn't. But he still had a funny accent. However he said that when first moved to Sweden did he, among with some people in england and people from other countries, think that english was the second offical language here. Because there so many that can both understand it and talk it well. There are quite many who can even talk it with a perfect english or american accent.
Not strange since we start to learn english in the 3rd grade.
