    Growing up around Norwegians in Minnesota is pretty much a continuous giggle fest. My Dad's first language was Norwegian and it is just fun to listen to. He called it "Sing songy". That is so true. But, there is that time when all the "old" men would break into laughter and us kids would ask what was so funny. The answer was never funny. We didn't actually figure out until we grew up a bunch that they were telling dirty jokes. Dad would say they just laughed because of how the language sounded. The bottom line is that language really is best when it is funny. Kjell translates this well into Engrish.

    Norwegian names are all funny untill you learn their meaning. Kjell, Kjetil and Ketil comes from norse Ketill, meaning sacrificial pot (blood collector) or helmet. Trygve, from norse Tryggvi, means safe/safety.

And then he goes on to add this other quality that makes the product EVEN better and then adds a super deal that makes you wanna "Call Now!"
    You were the extra bonus that made your brother better. He owes his success to you. Because without a technically youngr brother, he would have no one to feel smug and superior to.

    I love how he makes a joke about having to correct Americans on how to pronounce his name, when he can't even pronounce his, or his brother's, name correctly... But, tbf, some people in Norway do struggle with the distinction between the skj- and kj- sound... as well as some other similar sounds to them. (We have a lot... ;-;) So, they often do say skjell (shell) instead of Kjell. XD
    (But we also get this difference "hammered" into us from a young age since we know these are sounds people often confuse.)
