Haha. Time to show my age: I remember the Muppet Show... :p The character is called the "Swedish Chef", but he tend to babble in a invented language all the time... ;) I guess that we Swedes sound like that to americans.. ;)
 
At one point me and my buddies have to go a convention in the US, all cosplay as the Swedish chef, and just walk around speaking regular Swedish :lol:
 
I really don't think that's English. We may need to get a Dutch speaker in here to tell us one way or the other.
 
You two are speaking about different videos. B.J. is referring to the Swedish Chef, while Nerys Ghemor wants to know what the people in the video she linked to in her post say. I'm sure it's Dutch but I only understood very little. (Not having learnt the language.)
The moderator says that she doesn't know what that means and I believe the man wonders whether it's appropriate to say that on TV.
 
For anyone who hasn't seen this classic Ingmar Bergman piss take, it's full of hilarious mock-Swedish dialogue -- laced with Yiddish and freshman Latin.
