I think it would be great for us to see how many different nationalities we have here on SD. You don't have to go into your whole history, but share with us your main nationality.

I am American/Canadian

Creo sería excelente para miramos cuántos las nacionalidades diferente tenemos aquí SD. No tienes que decir nos toda su historia, pero compartirnos su nacionalidad principal.

Soy americana y canadiense.

Hola, annierats! Is Swedish very different from English and Spanish? - joygogo, Mar 14, 2014
Yes, Jopygo, yes. We have easy verbs but difficult nouns, I suppose,if you were learning as a foreign language. - annierats, Mar 14, 2014
Creo que la lengua es el sueco. Pero para mi también es difícíl evitar el mismo error porque en sueco la lengua es 'svenska'. ;-) - Castor77, Mar 15, 2014

I was born in the United States, and like many of us, I am from many countries, some I don't know. I have German, Danish, Dutch, Irish and Cherokee roots. Maybe that is why I feel at home in whatever country I live.

Nací en Estados Unidos y como muchos de nosotros, soy de muchos paises algunos que no conozco. Tengo raices de Alemana, Dinamarca, Holanda, Irlanda, y Cherokee. Tal vez es porque siento en casa en cualquier pais que vivo.
