The Swedish Language
- Swedish is natively known as Svenska and belongs to the Indo-European, Germanic, North Germanic language family.
- There are approximately 10 million native speakers worldwide.
- Swedish is the most widely spoken of the Scandinavian languages and is an official language of both Sweden and Finland.
- Swedish has a pitch accent system with two tones that can distinguish word meaning, a feature rare among European languages.
- The Swedish Academy, founded in 1786, is responsible for awarding the Nobel Prize in Literature and publishes the authoritative Swedish dictionary.
- Swedish uses the letters \xc3\xa5, \xc3\xa4, and \xc3\xb6 as distinct letters placed at the end of the alphabet, not as variants of a, a, and o.
- Sweden has one of the highest rates of English proficiency among non-English-speaking countries, which influences modern Swedish with frequent English loanwords.
- The Swedish community in Australia is small, with a few thousand Swedish-born residents. Migration has been modest and largely skilled or lifestyle-driven. Swedish-Australians are found in major cities, with small community organisations in Sydney and Melbourne. Most Swedish migrants are highly proficient in English, reducing demand for translation services.
About Algester
Algester is an outer suburb of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It is 18 kilometres (11 mi) south-west of the central business district. The suburb's population was estimated in the 2011 census at 8,262. The suburbs of Algester, Calamvale and now Parkinson, sit on the southern border or boundary of the City of Brisbane local government area with suburbs of Logan City such as Browns Plains and Regents Park.
The suburb's name is a corruption of the name of the English town of "Alcester". Briefly in the mid to late 1970s the suburb was colloquially named Ridgewood Heights after the Ridgewood Heights property development that then made up most of its land area, but had officially been known as Algester from 1972. In the early 70's, Algester Road and Dalmeny Street were connected as non sealed roads and the only thoroughfare into the suburb.
Dalmeny Street ended at the first house to be built in the suburb known then as Lot 22 (now numbered as 133). These early residents were exposed to the abundance of native Australian flora and fauna, before development in the mid-1970s. Algester was heavily developed from the mid-1970s and has also seen considerable recent development. It forms part of the Brisbane Agricultural Reserve, which once covered a large area of southern Brisbane.
