Resouces for Learning Swedish

In case you wanted to learn swedish on your own, here are some resources I find useful:
  1. Ilya Frank's learning method - foreign language books with in-text translations, and lots of other resources. Russian speakers can learn not only Swedish but also lots of other languages, like French, Swedish, Yiddish, Romanian, Irish etc. English speakers can only learn Russian and Japanese (no Swedish unfortunately).
  2. Björn Engdahl's Swedish course - excellent for beginners.
  3. You can watch movies in Swedish, in particular Karlsson pa taket that's also available as a book on Ilya Frank's Russian site.
  4. Lots of videos on YouTube - for instance this one.
