    no ü or double-k in swedish. “Helvetesskållat” would be a direct translation, but i personally prefer the simpler “AJSOMFAN”

            it would of course be called the “Lilltåkvarn”. pinkie toe grinder.

        now i’m trying to figure out what eesti/deutsch/svenska pidgin would sound like.

        the closest I’m getting is finland-danish.
