Det här visste jag inte!

Den 14 maj är det Svenska teckenspråkets dag! 🤟 Exakt när det uppkom är oklart, men 1809 påbörjades dövundervisning av Pär Aron Borg och hans handalfabet används än idag.

Här ser du ett handalfabet i en broschyr utgiven till den sjätte internationella dövstumkongressen i Stockholm 1884.

Igår var det skärtorsdag och då är det många barn i Sverige som klär ut sig till "påskkärringar" och "påskgubbar" och ber om godis. I Visby ordnade man som vanligt en påskmarsch för både barn och vuxna. De lyckades inte slå rekordet från förra året, men jag tror att de hade kul ändå!

Ask me anything!

I'd like to add some more informative content to this page, but I don't know where to start!

So ask me anything (within reason) about the Swedish language and I will try to answer your questions!

Questions have to be reasonable and specific, and I'll answer you in turn, in my own time, of course.

Will I live to regret this? Probably...
