i really think this is a funny idea... however, i would probably score better in the IKEA names than the Sigur Ros names. i think that is because at least 50% of the furniture in my house is from IKEA.

i still wanna know if they have swedish fish in sweden (meaning the candy, not just fish that happen to be swedish). :lol:

Iceland is mostly Danish in heritage and they have their own language, Icelandic, which is closer to Old Norse than any of the Scandinavian languages In fact 10 other nations make up the population of Iceland before you get to the Swedish.

My great grandfather was from Denmark and my sister in law works for IKEA so I'm kind of an expert you see.

Now as far as the list goes. I got nothing. It's all the same to me.

Old Norse is also a heavy contributor to the English language.



So.............



what else is going on?
