English week 18 - English in a Swedish environment

Last Wednesday, some of the students went looking for English words in Södertälje. This is what they found...

Samaher and Wisam walked into Södertälje and saw all this...

American-Italian: Is that a good combination?

There can be only...

Some reading for the summer holidays.

What you wear on your feet:

Well-dressed British men love this Swedish shop that includes British clothes sizes (inches) on their labels.

"Suit up" is a very macho phrase. Shame the rest of the sign is in Swedish. Lovely light and reflections in this picture...

A bit like "pit stop":

Lovely soft focus shot to match those soft, gentle soaps and creams: 

Registered in the Bahamas and sailing in Södertälje:

Try speaking English in this shop:

This is English as long as you pronounce the letters as, /eɪ/, /bi/, /si/

Meanwhile, Sandra, Cecilia and Lizette walked from Hagaberg to the nearest Konsum and spotted the following. ..

"Group" is so much cooler than "grupp"

Swedes really like adding "man" to verbs, don't they!

English week 18 - things of beauty

Here are photos that students took last Wednesday when I sent them out to record interesting things....

Streetlamp in Södertälje
This is a very beautiful lamp, it's located at the Södertälje Square, right outside the old "guildhall" (Rådhuset). I've seen 2 of these lamps - maybe there are a few more? (Siri)

Memento mori
This is on the town church wall, (St Ragnhild's Church) in Södertälje. I like these skulls and all the decorations around. It's powerful but in a subtle way. Memento Mori is Latin for remember that you will die or "remember your mortality". The church is pretty old (oldest parts are may be 800 years old) and have survived city fires including one big city fire in 1850.  (Siri)

Kungsträdgården in Stockholm.
I just had to take the chance to take a few shots of the flowers there - too bad it was dusk.  (Siri)
