Umm, if I’ve used the site in Portuguese and English today (which I have) why am I getting an email in some unknown Scandinavian language?

Välkommen ombord snart is fun though, I have to admit.
When you “uppdatera din profil”, can you change the default language?
(BTW, I’m pretty certain that’s Swedish, since Danish and Norwegian don’t use the ä.)
I wouldn’t be surprised if Ryan Air has a new policy – everyone gets Swedish to start with and you can change it. But they will charge you £5 for doing so.
I have always thought that those guy must have an exaggerated sense of humour!
Swedish
Fast, good, or cheap – pick two.
At least it wasnt translated into Icelandic with a note from their country manager Fanny Battir

Switch the n and k.
Seriously, you use Ryanair? Doesn’t the shadowy head of the shady global scandium oligopoly have a private jet, if not a teleporter?
“snart” is a good word – when one sneezes and involuntarily farts at the same time. Excellent stress reliever, provided one doesn’t turn it into a “shnart”
Honestly, it still sucks less than the old one.
That’s cod Scandowegian. As distinct from Scandowegian cod, obviously.
P.S. We once got a postcard from a friend in Sweden. The so-called “Swedish” it was written in was almost exactly Scots. Though I understand that spoken “Swedish” sounds more like Geordies complaining.
” Though I understand that spoken “Swedish” sounds more like Geordies complaining”
I seem to remember reading a Melvin Bragg piece about how he was out in a restaurant and overheard a Scandinavian couple talking to each other in their native tongue, and was struck by how much it sounded like Geordie or Cumbrian dialect, which he knew, having been brought up in Wigton.
It is Swedish.
