An early morning at Värdshuset

Hi.. can you please help me with the washing machine? It's all in Swedish, a little chinese person asks me.

I follow her to the laundry room and help her.

The funny part is that there are no Swedish labels at all on the washing machine, but symbols showing the different fabric material and symbols saying what kind of laundry it is and how though it should be washed.

Can't really blame her. I mean chinese people use symbols in their language, so why wouldn't it make perfectly sence if we did that as well? Just that our symbols looked different of course.
