Swedish language help
Posted: Thu Dec 05, 2013 10:41 pm
While Flemish must be distantly related to Swedish I'm very uncertain when reading certain Swedish texts.
Got myself a few excellent books on the GNW but stil looking for some extra info on the internet.
I'm not sure if there are any Swedish members here on the forum, but perhaps someone could help me with translating the following:
Av förgyllt silver med konungens krönta namnchiffer under kunglig krona och annan utsmyckning i emalj
What I think I'm reading is: From gilded silver with 'kings crown' ? under Royal Crown and other? in emaille (glazed enamel) So what I'm missing are the words 'namnchiffer' and 'utsmycking'. The latter is very similar to the Flemish 'opsmuk' meaning decoration but it could be something entirely different of course.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
