    It's a thing in at least Swedish as well, though not as memetic cause I guess Swedish isnt as inherently funny sounding as German.

        Slightly unrelated, but I dislike the Swedish chef, not because it mocks Swedes, but because it has deprived anglos of mocking Swedes correctly.

        Vi speak verrry gud Inglish in Sviden.

        Swedish English accents seem to be pretty commonly considered humorous, I think its just English speakers dont really know how to say the words(not that they do for German, but the resulting attempt sounds funnier compared to just "Cant say this word".)

      I actually know. If I were to construct a Swedish compound word for you, for example "ungdomsarbetslöshetskommittéordförande", could you confirm for the English speakers that you can not only parse it, but could - if you wanted to - make it worse?
