Engelska bruda?

watch movies with swedish subtitles, they are really good!

i guess if there is no plan to move to sweden, then it will be hard for him to motivate himself... but i guess when (if) you have children he might feel the need to learn so that you and the children don't have a secret language!

i'm sure you'll have no probelm getting a job, especially with a phd! i also have a phd and it's really valued! my m2b worked abroad of course, in switzerland after his masters ex-jobb and then in london, adn i think employers found him more interesting for him. he got work after only 6 weeks here. i got my job before we left the uk but he camse without anything...

as a doctor it'll be ok for him but he needs to do the proficiency exam to get the lisence i think. that is level C1 in the european standards test. i did level B2 in the winter term (after being here 1 year) and should have started teh C1 course in the autumn now but i was too busy. but it doesn't take so long once you already have the basics i think.

i speak in swedish with the nurses at work becasue they are generally older and donät like to speak english, but i speak english and some swedish with other physicists and doctors

as a trainee though, doctors can come for an exchange for a semester... i know becasue i teach them in english! perhaps that would be a good opportunity for your m2b to learn swedish and make some contacts in sweden! and he could take a language course for medics too...

so you are not english? is your m2b english then?

NuÄrDetDags
I hope you are feeling better after some sleep!
i also miss the pub culture, the spontaneity of it! my m2b does too!
and i know exactly what you mean about others speaking english. i used to frustrate me in the beginning when i tried to speak in english and then swedes replied in english... now they don't though! it took a while for people to understand i might be able to make it!

and i'm still the only english bride! i can't be the only one!

catte
