English translation

[edit]

The English translation given is highly literal; should we instead (or also) include a translation that is more free and natural-sounding in English? The most closely corresponding idiom I can think of for "helan går" is "down the hatch"... so what about something like this?

Down the hatch!
Sing hop fa la la la la la lay
Down the hatch!
Sing hop fa la la la lay
And he who doesn't drink it all
He won't be getting any more
Down the haaaaaatch!
(Drink)
Sing hop fa la la la lay!

Nokias Scandinavian heritage?

[edit]

Nokia is Finnish, which is not part of Scandinavia. Although Finland was part of Sweden for about 700 years and still has a Swedish speaking minority, and Swedish as the official second language in some cities. All that doesn't make the phrasing correct. Technically there is no "Scandinavian heritage" of Nokia. --176.21.65.125 (talk) 21:45, 22 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
