You Italians had your time in the Classical era. My people (the Dutch) had their fun a few centuries back(And now it's coming back at us to bite us in the *** because of our past endeavors of conquest and slavery). Now it's someone else's turn!

It's curious that Erasmus and Spinoza are worshipped like gods here. More than Giordano Bruno.

Hmmm...I'm not missing much.
Ever tried Surstromming?
Or rotten shark?

Norwegians I've known have all spoken fantastic english... But you guys tend to be hard on yourselves. Stop that! You're fine.

Well I'm not a ordinary norwegian. In school I struggled hard with english. I got low grades in english. And even today friends laught at me if I try to speak english since my accent sounds so norwegian.

But I have tried to practice english in many years now, and now I'm much better then I was. Now I can read english books, and understand almost everything.

You know, I actually love Norsk and have toyed with the idea of learning it. It's a beautiful language, and I love the linguistic similarities between it and English.

If I were to choose another language to learn, it'd be that one. Only problem is that no one speaks it hardly where I live, so there really isn't too much of a point in learning it. Still, I would love to some day.

Back on topic though, like I said, stop beating yourself up... Your English, at least in the written form, is wonderful!
