	Porfyhr Number of messages: 793	Xini, Maggis message is very true. In Swedish we extremely seldom use the word "please". If you should talk real "Swenglish" then avoid all "Please". "Give me a beer." "Help me with this." "Could you give me a hand." Swedes are therefore considered rude by many English speaking persons. So I'll fight for the "please" in my translation. It is one of the rudimentary signs of the difference between a good and a bad translation to/from Swedish, I think.
