not to go to bat for the swedes but the fact that “your word means something funny in english” is a mainstay of even international english speaking community is just absolute american cultural victory
Need for fart
Someone find that picture of the Swedish children’s book of animal names and there’s a page of a goat and its young and it just says “get killing”
geef me een klap papa
Idk at least they regulate farts. Fucking tankies all about the state until that state tells them to kkkontrol their farts
“It’s not the fart that kills, it’s the smell” - some norwegian racer guy
Petter Solberg, who had a lot of other quotes involving mixing up Norwegian and English words
If I remember correctly - speed bump = “fart hinder”
Edit: oh and I think entrance / exit in Icelandic is “infart” and “utfart”
It’s not infart and utfart in Icelandic.
It’s “inngangur” and “útgangur”

Fartsdumper is speedbumps in Norwegian
infart / utfart is Swedish not Icelandic. I will tell you that restroom in Icelandic is “snyrting” which always amused me
yeah it’s from the same proto-germanic root as the english word “farther”
Proto-Indo-European is believed to have *perd- for fart and *per- for forward. I wonder if there were any puns as a result
Not left, not right, fartward
On TrueAnon they mentioned that Trump once dated a Norwegian woman named Celina Midelfart
That’s a very different movie when you’re stuck on a bus and everyone has to keep Fart over 55…Perfect opportunity for a break out performance by Keanu Beans though
How did you miss “Beanu”?
The movie poster is in Norwegian or possibly Danish though. But yes, fart is speed, even though that speed would translate better to hastighet.
Hastighet = velocity (vektor)
Fart = speed (skalär)
Sure but in daily talk you wouldn’t translate hastighet to velocity but speed.

hasty-get
I suppose a literal translation would be suddeness 😅
din fart
Look up what “out of stock” is
If you’re referring to slutsåld then honestly slut just means end
This man has a distaste for slut salad.
“inte i lager”?
They should have called it “Bussen Som Inte Kunde Sakta Ner”
