    I suppose the proper Swedish word is e-post.

        Your translator thought that "mail" was the verb.

        E-posten happens to be a valid word too; it's the definite form "the email".

                  Fish Fingers would be the fish equivalent of spam wouldn't they?


                  You could say 'damn, I got another fish finger in my box'.

                    Fish fingers are fine as they are usually cod.

                    Fishcakes are the usual nasty bastards as they are reconstituted fish bits from all the crappy fish that nobody likes. Plus they are usually greyish-pink and taste like soggy cardboard.

                        I doubt there's a lot of cod in a fishfinger, usually it's something a lot cheaper. (don't how it's called in English).
                        Some more expensive brands may use (mainly) cod, but not many, don't forget that salmon is about halve the price of cod.

                            Possibly tuna or mackeral or shark.

                                Whats wrong with total Americanization?
