Jag läser helst på svenska, det måste jaag säga, men finner det inte helt fel att hålla koll på vad andra också läser på ett andra språk som jag också kan. Frihet, har någon sagt, är att kunna flera språk. Frihet, kan man med andra ord, ha till på det ena och det andra. Danska och norska läser jag också på och det flyter på riktigt bra ibland. Tyska däremot har jag mest tragglat. Kanske lite taskigt mot tyskan.
