The five officially recognized minority languages in Sweden are:
Tornedalen Finnish or Meankeli: a dialect spoken in the far north in the Torne River Valley
I was surprised by the last two as I did not realise the Roma people had travelled that far north.
Yiddish was officially recognized by the Swedish government in 1999.
There were five winners who will carry over 5 points each to the next round in March.
Three were from the USA, one from Denmark, and one from Wales.

Norman,
You haven't told how much previous contest winners will be handicapped. I think the winner of your last contest should have twice the handicap since they are too smart.
You are all very smart.
