Blog # 6: Most unusual sound in Sewdish language

I like the fact that in every language there is always a unique way to say something whether it a specific word or phrase. This video is exactly about that. Oliver Green is the guy in the video who discovered (not exactly discovered it but reporting about it) the very unique sound the city of Umeå, in north of Sweden, pronounces the word yes. In most of Sweden they pronounce the word yes “Ja” but in the north they pronounce it by making a sound that sounds like sucking in a whistle (that’s the best way I found to explain it). I found it fascinating and I though it was pretty cool way to say "yes". Check it out for yourselves!

Blog #5: If idioms were real

Oh idioms! Aren't they great? Saying one thing that has a different figurative meaning than the literal  meaning. I think idioms are so much fun to use and many of us use it in a daily basis. I found a couple of videos and articles talking about idioms but I thought this video was just what I was looking for. I thought it would be cool to see how they would look like if they were real; that's were this video comes in (I loved the one about the milk) I hope you guys like it as much as I did!
