My best friend (an American) first learned Swedish while studying the language in Lund (a city in the southern part of Sweden). He learned Riksvenska (the 'dialect of Stockholm' (Stockholm = not in the northern part of Sweden ) that is also the 'official dialect' of the Riksdag (the national legislature in Sweden). My best European friend is a Gothenburg/Goteborg native, and speaks with an upper class version of that particular local accent. The two of them used to get in arguments (laughing while they were arguing....but still competitive and stubborn) about which one was speaking 'proper Swedish'. Eventually, after his med school years in Lund, my best friend developed a local (Scania/Skane) provincial accent that is prevalent in the Lund/Malmo area (retained to this day...he lives in Copenhagen), and the debates stopped. However, my stubborn best friend never admitted that he was wrong way back when .
