So it says "With eng subtitles."

My question is:  What is an eng?

What I'm seeing is subtitles like this:  "Senare fick jag ett plan med hela tre kanoner."

These engs talk funny, is all I'm saying.

Nice film, though, thanks for that!

Yeah I was thinking engine subtitles eh guess not, lost in translation  :grin:

It says something like later I had a plane with 3 cannons or guns, a swede background and having your dad speak it at times helps ;)

Swedish still is our secondary domestic language and mandatory as such. They say it's also very useful as you'd be able to communicate with all Scandinavians! The proof: https://youtu.be/U2r7vNJh1t4 (https://youtu.be/U2r7vNJh1t4)

There was a cool documentary about modern Finnish combat swimmers' school and selection course, but I can't find it online anyplace :(
