User:Johan Förberg

I attend the final year of the International Baccalaureate in Karlskrona, Sweden. Among my areas of interest are Physics, History and Computing. In my spare time, I play the saxophone and do photography.

How to pronounce my name (if anyone is interested):

Think of a bear in the woods, with its fur. Then:

För-berg

becomes

Fur-bear-j

with the trailing 'j' sounding like that in 'yes'. Please note that the word 'berg' really does not have anything to do with bears, it simply means 'mountain' or 'rock' in Swedish.

As for my first name, just use whatever the fourth Evangelist is called in your natural language: Johann, John, Juan, Jean. In writing though, please use the original Swedish spelling 'Johan'. My middle name is 'Alexander', which I think is easy to say in most languages. In writing, whenever an o with umlaut (ö) can not be used, I prefer leaving it out (Forberg) rather than putting an 'oe' diphtong instead (Foerberg).
