Young Conan, with that hair and that jaw and that dress, like a BOSS.

@92tamkel well, yeah. almost every country like russia, canada, usa etc xD

[Spreewaldtopf]

stop it... the audience doesn't react?

[92tamkel]

@1usarobin Very very very small compared to what? Russia? :D

[1usarobin]

@ocm4r well, sweden is a country but very very very small so i see your point and your right. dident thought of it like that:)

[1usarobin]

@KostaKaramanidis no i dident say that, i think u misunderstood:/ just said we in sweden do not translate so much, but we do it a little bit. ofc i know germans can speak english, and that german is their main language so they are suppose to speak german:) and no i dident say they are suppose to speak english on their shows, it was just the translation of conan i was talking about xD

@Hallelujahkay You're right my bad, i didn't know the different terminology. Dress is female, yes?

[ocm4r]

@1usarobin thats because sweden is a non country with a population of only 10 million, they have to adapt the language of superior societies in order to have at least a minimal impact. The german speaking area in contrast has about 12 times the population of sweden, therefore they are self sustained and do not need to adapt the language to such a degree.

@1usarobin wtf should German people speak english on a german programm? Of course most germans do speak english, but i hate the lazy attitude english speaking people have about other languages. Learn German if u wanna watch a german show...

[1usarobin]

@soundaffair oh ok, i did not know about that:) but yeah this was like u said in 1997, so i would think that we also had somekind of way of translating like they did in this show also in sweden during the time, maybe not so much but a little bit:/

[soundaffair]

@1usarobin I know about Sweden and also for example the Netherlands where you don't have dubbed movies and all. We have dubbed movies, and English starts late in school (but that changed the last couple of years), so generally speaking, we don't know English as well as most Swedish people do. And you have to consider that this was in 1997. So I think there has been a slight change by now. But still, many English speaking people on the TV get translated like that. But not as many as then.
