My native language is Swedish, not English. They are both quite closely related though.
I'm really curious to that Swedish sounds like to tonal-language people. It's often described as "sing-songy" by "non-tonal" people from e.g. UK/US.
- laylomo 10y agoIt's because of words like anden and andEN. That second version is sing-songy because it has two stresses.
