Great job Janet! One or two questions:
Skogsverket seems to be a private company. You were perhaps thinking of Skogsstyrelsen? “Styrelse” denotes a board, but they call themselves an agency, The Swedish Forest Agency
Also, the Swedish word “tina” can either translate into the verb “thaw” or the nouns “creel”, “pot” (like in lobster pot)
And don’t forget the delicious haddock – “kolja” in Swedish.
Thanks so much for this Bertil. Will change and add!
Good job there! We will have to study your list carefully before going to New Zealand in February. You seem to have missed… nothing!
Notice you got the “rovdjur” right. Well done!
