About Annelie Jansson Expertise I speak Swedish fluently, and can answer the most questions about grammar, worduse etc. If you`re interested in an expert in the Swedish language, send me an email
On another board, a person received an email but was unable to translate it. I am not Swedish, but I took a crack at it...can you verify my translation?
Thanks

Hej!
Har tyvärr inte kommit fram per telefon till er.
Min son, Martin Persenius, fotograferades i Heidenstamsskolan klass 8b tidigare i höstas. tyvärr har han tappat bort lappen med beställningen om foton till påseende. Han var intresserad av porträttserie och skolkatalogen. Går det att ordna ändå på något sätt? Kan
detta räknas som en beställning?

Answer Hello!
I'm sorry my reply is a bit tardy, I have been unable to reach my email for some time.
The translation is OK, with a few corrections.
"My son, Martin Persenius, was photographed with his class, 8b, in the Heidenham Junior High School earlier this fall.
Unfortunatly, he has lost his the reservation note to have the pictures sent to our home for a pre-order inspection.
He was interested in buying a series of portrait shots and his school year book.
Is this still arrangable?
May this be treated as an order?"
That would be the basic point of the letter.
Glad to be of service.
Yours, Annelie Jansson
