  • If you listen to the end of the video, Jake doesn't seem to be sure about the proper prononciation either. There are two versions not identical. One way or another, really a funny language. :)

  • am I the only one who thinks that Jake Gyllenhaal looks like Inspector Gadget??

  • yillenhoolahay???

  • Yillenhoolahay :D lmao

  • GY LEN HALL

  • @soho6802 are you sure haal is entreance, in traditional swedish spelling double a would be å and hål means hole...

  • Translation of Gyllenhaal: Gyllen = gold haal =entrance, golden entrance! It's a swedish "knights" name from around 1650...

  • That's trolling at it's finest.

  • I'm so proud he has Swedish ancestors :')

    Although i have no idea how to pronounce his name..
