Language
Swedish is part of the Nordic branch of the Germanic language family, closely related to Danish and Norse, and speakers of the three languages can often understand each other. English is widely spoken in Sweden, and there should be little difficulty in communication for English-speaking visitors. Sweden’s most distinctive minority community, the Sami or Lapps, speak Sami, their own language, which is unrelated to Swedish.
