Awesome Micheal that you think that way! Keep the comments coming. This lessons are for you so if there is anything you’re thinking about, just let us know!
Great!!!! I already love this page, even if that was the first lesson I listened!
This cours is realllly exellent… 
Hej!
Underbara! Great website and podcast! I looked for a Swedish podcast last year and I was shocked there was nothing available. My girlfriend and I thought we would make one, but I’m glad you’ve already done so.
Now I can learn the language so I can communicate with my girlfriend’s friends and family!
Damo, so your girlfriend is swedish? Awesome, I hope I can help you improve your swedish.
Tackar. This is a very good course, and the website is very well done. I hope to converse with my 2 Swedish grandchildren.
Farfar
I also hope that you will be able to interract with your grandchildren some day! In Swedish.
I just found your postings on iTunes and am very excitied to relearn what I have lost since my days as an exchange student at folkhögskolan (1987).
Tusen Tack!!
This is great and sooooooooooooooo easy I wanted to learn a new language that is not as common in my school so I picked Swedish and this is the easiest program I have tried.
Tack så mycket

Hi everybody! This was meant to be an easy show yet informative. Learning languages are fun, and should be. Don’t forget that!
I repeat phrases all the time! Love it!
Great! Keep it up!
congratulations! i’ll be visiting the site ;D:grin
Hi Jorge, awesome that you like my show
I hope you will finally be able to talk to your friends in the language you love. Keep it up!
Pleased with what i’ve learned so far, thank you for creating the podcast.
Hi Sarah
I promise you that there is a lot more good stuff in the following 59 lessons. You are really up for a treat
I’m pleased to know that you are pleased. Thank YOU for listening.
Brilliant!
Tack!
(sorry for repost)
Thank you again, It’s a brilliant and easy way of learning the language, I’m very grateful
Oh And I love the cute story about the skiing accident! That is soooo sweet!
Keep up the good work
Thank you! The story is so embarrassing but I hope it can get you a little “inside information” about how to use the phrase!
Tack så mycket!
Very nice =)
Thank you too Gabriel!
Hej Joakim!
I really enjoy your lessons, and find them very helpful! I am learning Swedish for fun, and I LOVE IT! How old are you by the way 
Kepp up the good work! I like your Swedish accent!
Hej! It makes me happy to learn that you enjoy my lessons and find them useful. I am really into languages myself so I feel that it is my concern to transcend beyond text books and give you all a more “real” approach to the language. I am nineteen years old :cool:. How old are you yourself? It would be fun to know more about the people listening to my voice
I hope I don’t have too much Swedish accent but a tad to make my beautiful voice exotic and exiting
/Joakim
Hej! Well that’s realy cool! I love languages! I also got the survival phrases podcast for Arabic, and Russian. I also take French at school, but Swedish is my all time favorite language! It’s much prettier than other Germanic languages! And it looks really cool written! I am 16 years old, so not too much younger than you. You can look up ‘McKenna Nobbs’ on facebook to learn more about me!
Indeed you aren’t too much younger than me
I also think Swedish is pretty, and I have lot of experience of other germanic languages (e.g. I’m fluent in german) so I’m not saying this because I’m Swedish.
I hope you all learning Swedish thinks the same. You should get your hands on some music in Swedish, since it’s really nice when someone sings. Ok, I must say that norwegian has a similar sound when it’s sung
/Joakim
Yes, Norwegian sounds similiar when it’s spoken as well! I do have a considerable amount of Scandinavian music on my ipod, and I love it!
Do you know Agnetha Faltskog? She is my favorite Swedish singer! She’s great! I love ABBA as well, although they don’t have too many songs in Swedish 
Of course I know about her. She was in ABBA you know ;D Have you seen Mamma Mia? We have a Swedish actor in that movie and he has a boat with a Swedish flag.
The melody of Norwegian is not very similar to Swedish, just so you know
Yeah I know that the accent is different in Norwegian, but I meant that the languages are similar in vocabulary, and whatnot. But yes, I know all about Agnetha, and ABBA is my favorite band. I LOVE Mamma Mia! And the Swedish actor was the one the one who played Bill Andersson right? I liked him
Yepp, it was although “Bill” is not a very common Swedish name
oh no! did you delete your facebook? If so, get one again, so we can be friends! I got your message, but haven’t been able to respond!
Hehe Hi McKenna
Yeah I’ve deleted facebook since I’ve got a lot of other stuff going on. If you want any help or so you are welcome to e-mail me at joakimbertil[at]hushmail.com
This is brilliant!
Joakim is really easy to understand and it goes at a good pace. Just wondering where I can find the transcripts of the lessons?
Hi Anna, awesome that you like my lessons. There aren’t any transcripts for the lesson but there is a PDF that goes through what the lesson cover and more. In addition is there a vocab-list.
OMG.
Tack så mycket, Jag talar bara litet svenska. =]
