Å!

That is perhaps the most legendary letter of any Latin-based alphabet.
I remember being taught (unsuccessfully, dare I add) how to pronounce it by a Danish friend of mine. *Sigh... good times*

But the Danes can't even pronounce their own language correctly.

I LOVE å!

Hurrah for Å!

I was having a talk with a Norwegian-speaking friend of mine today about how weird Norwegian sounds to me and how weird Swedish sounds to him.

And then we agreed that Danish is just inane. Seriously, it's like all their consonants disappeared.

Yeah. Spoken Danish bears no resemblance to written Danish whatsoever. It's all a load of å to me.

Great grandad was from Denmark. Shame I never met him...

I love Å, it's a beautiful letter.

In Swedish, "å" can mean "river" (å, ån, åar, åarna), an infinitive marker ("å leka") dialectally or an interjection ("å! jag vill till ån!").

The only letter in the Latin alphabet originally Swedish, it makes me... happy

Every language has its legendary letters.
The Welsh ^w isn't without its charm either!

ah å the best letter ever. I want to learn swedish simply because I love that letter... well that and Basshunter's hot XD

English. English is without legendary letters. We have nothing fun. We do nothing to our letters. Well unless they come from another language like french or something.

English got rid of its legendary letters when it started using movable type. Poor thorn, eth, and wynn...

Oh, Æ, where have you gone?

â > å

Just as well. We torment entire words to our service, not merely lowly letters!

Mwahahahahaha!

PSST! Someone in the YAC annex å!

I hereby annex the letter å, and it's capital form Å, for the YAC!

Now, where does it go in the alphabetical listing?
