    I was born and raised in Florida. We are a rare breed (a lot of people are transplants here, mostly Northerners).

    In my particular area, the native language is Ghetto Redneck. I, myself, prefer proper English. But there are many different places where the primary language used is Spanish. Take Miami, for instance. :laugh:


    Hello my fellow native Floridian, yes we are a very rare breed :happy:

    born and raised in Norway. Speaks Norwegian.

    Has lived in Mississippi, USA - howya'll doin'?

    And lived in Zürich, Switzerland - Grüezi Mitenand!

    Jeg snakker litt norsk. :laugh:
    Well, to be honest ... I started learning it and I just remember a few sentences .... very few.

    And it's PERFECT - your Norwegian :)

    It's perfect because I looked it up in my book, shame on me :laugh:

    We always had a good laugh about the phrase "Hvor gammel er du?" (How old are you), because "gammel[ig]" in German means something like rotten/scruffy.
