Yesterday's Answer:
The country known as Sverige by its locals, is the country called Sweden, in English.
Today's Question:
Name the language from whence we ultimately derive the words, "Satan," "cinnamon," "sapphire," "bedlam," and "seraph?"
I don't know this one. I know bedlam is from the name of an old mental institution in England. If I had to guess this one I'd go with German because English is Germanic in origin. This is a "stab in the dark," though.
