Roughly around 86% of people in Sweden speak English. The level of English spoken in Scandinavia is high
This is the one time where you're entitled to assume that the foreigner you're speaking to can speak English, anon.
Can confirm as a swede almost everybody knows english ^^ Most exchange students at the university I studied at had issues learning the language as everybody just defaulted to speaking english with them. The people I know also don't really care about Swedish either, not very nationalistic in that sense.
Met a friend online that's from Sweden, but didn't learn that fact for a few months. Until then I would've thought they grew up near me, there was no discernible accent.
