I'm learning fast, but it'll be a while before I'm really comfortable with it. Every time I think I'm getting good somebody will say something that sounds to me like a long unparsable stream of borka-borka like the swedish chef and I'll get all depressed about my progress for a couple of days. :)
Rumor has it that most of this kind of work is done in English, which would help. I haven't been able to verify that yet though.
Anyway, maybe we can help each other out. Email me if you feel like it. It's a gmail account and I'm "davesimard".
I am self employed, and 99% my clients are in UK, so I speak English all day.
When I'm at home I need to to speak English with my children so they learn some English. I have trouble finding any time to learn Swedish.
People usually don't have a problem with switching to English if there are non-Swedes present, but otherwise Swedish is used. Some people have difficulty sticking to English but a helpful reminder usually does the trick.
