Re: What do these names mean: Eske Svea
in reply to a message by Andy
Wow, I'm impressed to see you know so much about Sweden! :)
Just a little correction: it's "Svea rike," not "Svear rike".The Swedish word for "swallow" (the bird) is "svala."

I don't really know much about your (?) country. It took me quite some time to collect all the information about the name SVEA. But it was fun, and I really like Sweden, although I haven't seen much of it all.
Thanks for the corrrection!Andy ;—)
