Hello!

I have a girl speaking Swedish in a video, and I need very
much the English translation. Video is (0:51) long, and she
answers two questions.

Many thanks to anyone who can help with a translation.

Well you can tell she is not reading a script... was she really sober?
Anyway, i speak Swedish but aren't that skilled in English but i make an attempt anyway.

First an attempt to a transcript...
- The difference between swedish and american culture
- Swedish and american culture? Umm, jag tycker svensk och amerikansk kultur liknar sig kanske lite mer än vad svensk och fransk kultur gör faktiskt. De är lite mer närmare varandra i deras sätt att vara, deras sätt att arbeta, deras sätt att festa och sådär. Lite lika varandra kanske än vad svenskar och fransmän är.
- What are some things you like about american culture?
- Jag tyckte mycket om att jobba där, jag tyckte om att det fanns och se, det finns mycket olika saker att göra. Människor är väldigt originella ofta. Det finns, uhh, ska vi se här... uhm, Lets see...
- And in english if you wish...
- I have a hard time in swedish, i thinking i'm forgetting my swedish. De är väldigt kreativa. Det finns mycket att se och göra i USA tycker jag. och det finns mycket/många olika facetter till kulturen så att det finns många olika grejor att se, det är väldigt intressant. Och ostkusten och västkusten är väldigt annorlunda också.

And an attempt to translate...
- The difference between swedish and american culture
- Swedish and American culture? Umm, i really think Swedish and American culture are more alike than Swedish and French culture are. They are a bit closer in their way to be, their way of working, their way of partying and so on. A bit more alike than swedes and the french are...
- What are some things you like about american culture?
- I really enjoyed working there, i liked that there was [stuff] to see, there is a lot of diffrent things to do. People are often very original. There are, umm, lets see...
- And in english if you wish...
- I have a hard time in Swedish, i thinking i am forgetting my Swedish. Umm, they are very creative. There are a lot to see and do in USA i think. And there are many aspects to the culture so there are a lot of things to see, it is very interesting. And the eastcoast and the westcoast are also very different.

Great translation. Your English is very good!

What's funny is we had been drinking, drinking red wine out of
baby bottles, somewhere, down some Rue in Paris.... Sobriety
was definitively in question!

So, cheers to you for all the help!

You're welcome.
Funny thing that you become more aware of the quirks in your own language when you try to speak another...
