Language Origins

Swedish traces itself back to what’s known as Old Norse, the language of the Vikings and all of the Scandinavian lands. Starting in the 9th century, Old Norse underwent splits and divisions over time that eventually gave birth to a remarkable three modern languages which are actually mutually intelligible – Swedish, Danish, and Norwegian!

This amazing fact is part of what drew me to study Swedish in the first place, the idea that three separate languages retained enough of their ancestral linguistic DNA to be understandable to each other amazed me, because we tend to think of languages as a barrier.

TO BE OR NOT TO BE (BILINGUAL)?

“Worthy of the “golden patience” trophy for good humor and creativity when facing student’s difficulties. Very competent in teaching, my teacher brings the beauty and the richness of the French language through historical and current themes (he is interested in everything!) Focused on the interest of the student and on activities that encourage to understand not only the rules of the language and the meaning of the words, but also the culture of which they are part. Learning the French language gave me a new perspective of the world and France.”
