Subject: RE: Dansk Lyrics to Om Sommeren ....
here is one place i have gotten help for scandinavian language issues

they have a program which allows you to type nordic alphabet characters

and from this site http://www.ordbogen.com/
summer - We went to England last summer
om sommeren » in the summer - She goes to the beach every day in the summer
til sommer » this summer - She moves to the capital this summer
sidste sommer » last summer - She left her boy friend last summer
en svale gør ingen sommer » one swallow does not make a summer - One swallow does not make a summer, he said sadly
have en god sommer » have a nice summer - She asked him if he had had a nice a summer
