Any Swedish Speakers?

[erastes]

Simple question.  My Prussian officer is having a drinking game in a rough bar in Danzig (don’t ask me, do I LOOK like I’m in control??) with a Swedish sailor.

There are many other Swedish sailors in the bar and they chant “drink drink drink” when each man takes his turn.  What is the correct grammatical word they would use?  I’m guessing it’s not skal…

Helps!

Oo - What is "Let's Fuck?" I could use that.

I don't know how to spell it properly in Swedish with the umlauts and whatnot over the vowels - I think there are 2 dots over the u - but the english letters in "fuck" are knulla. (pronounced a bit like canoe, so it's canoe-la with the emphasis on the last syllable. When you say the whole sentence, transliterating it, it sounds like "Loat aahhs canoe-la tvaw gaahn-ger aaahm daaah-gen (hard g))

The rest were easy to look up the spelling in a translator: Låt oss [knülla?] två gånger om dagen.

I should add though that it's probably a more "formal" way to say it than sailors in a rough bar would! :-P

:) Yeah, a more casual approach would be, "Skall vi knulla?" = "Shall we fuck?" Or, well, "Knulla mig" = "Fuck me".

As for drink, I agree with moreteadk below, except that it's spelled differently in Swedish: dryck.

There's a good Swedish drinking song that I'll try and recall as I wander off to make my cup of tea - back soon!
