Capitalism is always the answer. Whenever there's a problem in capitalism, you just need some more capitalism. If the solution isn't capitalism, then it's not really a problem. If your capitalism gets damaged, you just need to throw some capitalism on it and get on with your life.

The Svedorian language is heavily influenced by Swedish, and to a lesser extent, other germanic languages, such as English and German. While Svedorian is the de facto language, it is mandatory to teach children English starting from second grade, as well as at least one other major language starting from fifth grade.

Good Luck!: Try your hardest, but even if you fail miserably don't worry about it.

Hello: Hello.

Good Bye: I shall now depart dear fellow, perchance I may happen upon your presence again in some postliminary time.

Thank you: The reason you are helping me is to make yourself feel better, let us sit down and further discuss your psychological motivation for offering assistance.

Your Welcome: I have made myself feel better by helping you; I shall rub it in by further putting yourself into my debt by making you aware that I have helped you.

Where is...?: Where the f*ck is.....?

Anyone here?: If any motherf*cker is hiding in here, stop hiding before I start tearing this place apart to look for you.

Do you need help?: I am offering my assistance to make myself feel better, and so that you will be in my debt and owe me a favour later.

Long live the -insert your nation name here-!: I don't really care for patriotism, as one does not choose the place of one's birth, shall we discuss the subject of patriotism further my dear fellow? Let me order some tea and crumpets so that we may further explore this subject!

We have three official languages in ML*. One of these is English, so we haven't included it. The other two are French and Spanish. They are represented by "FR" and "ES" respectively.

Good Luck!
ES - ¡Buena suerte!
FR - Bonne chance!

Hello
ES - Hola
FR - Bonjour

Good Bye
ES - Adiós
FR - Au revoir

Thank you
ES - Gracias
FR - Merci

Your Welcome (This should be "you're", since it's short for "you are")
ES - Le invitamos.
FR - Vous êtes les bienvenus

Where is...?
ES - ¿Dónde está ...?
FR - Où est ...?

Anyone here?
ES - ¿Hay alguien aquí?
FR - Personne ici?

Do you need help?
ES - ¿Necesita ayuda?
FR - Avez-vous besoin d'aide?

Long live the -insert your nation name here-!
ES - ¡Viva Mid Lothian!
FR - Vive Mid Lothian!

* - As it is spoken by less than 5% of the population, the laws stating that Welsh is an official langauge have been recently repealed.
Please note that Mid Lothian is based on fantasy. Any references to anything/one/where that exists is completely coincidential.
Frequently used abbreviations: HoS = Head of State; HoG = Head of Government; ML = Mid Lothian; KSS - Kate Stephens-Smith.
Fancy an embassy in ML? Click me for details. (PS - I'll return the favour.)
I am usually rewriting stuff about Mid Lothian - just because it's true today isn't necessarily true tomorrow.

Warning - Full-time Grammar Nazi at work. You have been warned. (I guess that's due to my mum being an English teacher. Also, don't use masculine words to describe me - my name is Rebecca, which is clearly a feminine name.)
