that IKEA knows exactly what they're doing when they name products, and are taking advantage of the "Veer Svedish! Yor English confuses us!" thing.

7. Actually, they speak English really well. |
|
I have Swedish second cousins who sound almost like regular Brits.

10. Bad name for a product |
|
In swedish, which the product name is, it means Complete speed but nonetheless, a bad name to sell to English speaking customers.
Also streams in dutch are kills. I heard there is one in New York called Fresh Kills which is strange.
