I went to school with a guy from Sweden - he was an exchange student 
staying here in Arizona.  I asked him to teach me how to swear in Swedish.  
Man did that sound cool.  :-)

I understand (and agree with) your point regarding the language.  I used 
to be practically fluent in spanish but haven't used it in ten years.  On 
my recent trip to Mexico I didn't want to utter a word under the fear that 
I might offend someone with my broken Spanish.  Turns out that they prefer 
broken Spanish over english.  LOL
