"Länsteater"
I am not sure if this is the right place or not. I am looking not for a translation, really, but a description of the concept "länsteater" - something that can be added after the name of such a theatre like, for instance, Gävleborgs Folkteater. I was thinking of something like "the theatre company of county X", but I am not sure about the term theatre company. It sounds more like something small and private, not like these institutional theatres. / Habj 03:53, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
- It would surprise me if not at least some of the länsteatrar had their own preferred English names. In either case, I think you should ask Bishonen about this. She might have an idea. Uppland 06:23, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
- That is two different issues, really - one how you translate the name, if you do. In cases where there is no generally accepted English translation, I guess it is better to stick to the Swedish name and explain it after the name. It was such an explanation I was asking for. But sure, if there is an accepted translation... / Habj 14:33, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
Broken link in Glossaries
The link "Leved of Local Democracy in Sweden" [sic] is broken. Tamino 10:57, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
Götar <-> Geats
This is not a good translation.
- I think we should stick to the translation provided by Sweden's standard Swedish-English dictionary Norstedts stora svensk-engelska ordbok, per ) 11:57, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
"Målsägandebiträde" and "sluten ungdomsvård"
When translating Gothenburg discothèque fire, I was hard-pressed to find good translations for the abovementioned terms. I came up with juridical adviser and juvenile care, although dom.se seems to refer to sluten ungdomsvård as care for youths (which is an appallingly diffuse term, IMHO - worse than the original). Any suggestions? Where next Columbus? (talk) 02:24, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
Differences between enwiki and svwiki culture and technology
I initiated the Swedish essay sv:Wikipedia:Skillnader mellan svenskspråkiga Wikipedia och andra språkversioner, which is a translation and extension to the English essay Wikipedia:Differences between the English Wikipedia and Wikipedias in other languages#Swedish.
What should be mentioned? Please help us address the question marks ("?") in the essay and suggest more concrete examples of articles that differ, for example content that has been deleted or delayed in one of the languages.Tomastvivlaren (talk) 06:44, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
