Also in this article the 80,000 speakers of Scanian are mentioned. Is there anyone out there who has the slightest idea who they are? The province has over 1,000,000 inhabitants. Most of them are born and raised there and they speak the dialect skånska, which is a regional variety of standard Swedish with some flavour of neighbouring Danish. But somewhere spread over the province there are 80,000 persons which are speaking this mysterious language. But who has really counted them and when was that count made? Are there any reliable sources? -- Muniswede ( talk) 22:18, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
Are the Jamtlandic loanwords really worth mentioning? Standard Swedish has borrowed relatively extensively fromDanish,German and French, anyway, and for now it seems the dialect is more heavily influenced than standard Swedish. it would be more interesting to note the dialect's peculiarities. 惑乱 分からん * \)/ (\ (< \) (2 /) /)/ * ( talk) 18:17, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
I have my doubts about the last section about immigrant languages. It sounds too much like ranting. I think the criterion of including only "native" minor languages had its basis in policies already formulated by the EU, not something the Swedish government itself had a major part in. 惑乱 分からん * \)/ (\ (< \) (2 /) /)/ * ( talk) 18:29, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
I removed a section about the Baltic states, due to bad prose and irrelevant placing. If you find it to be appropriate, rephrase and insert in correct section:
In the early 2000s, Sweden experienced an influx of economic immigrants from Eastern Europe, esp. the Baltic states restored their independence ( Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania) had searched for employment in Sweden, are required to learn the Swedish language if they want to become permanent citizens or have temporary work permits.

The map showing the language areas in Sweden contains serious errors. Bilingual Meänkieli/Finnish-Swedish areas in the Torne Valley along the border of Finland are indicated as monolingual Swedish-speaking. These areas are even legally defined in the official Meänkieli-speaking area. The map needs to be redrawn. -- 88.193.41.159 ( talk) 06:09, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
I performed an edit, thinking it would improve the article by removing redundancy (the same pie chart twice), but it had not benerfit, and may even have been detrimental by removing (written, excplicitly stated percentages) information (on self-reported knowledge of English). So I reverted. Can someone remove the double pie chart? I apologize for any damage to the article.-- Solomonfromfinland ( talk) 13:33, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
