The swedish word that have been used as a translation is the verb: to affiliate (sv: Ansluta) not the comparable to the source text word.

Affiliates should be translated to sv: Partners, which is in the proper tense and meaning.

Partners is Swedish? It looks like English!

Well, swedish has got a lot of imported words. Mainly english. It is far from the islandic.

We, linguistics, try to use swedish word if possible. In this case "partners" is the best!

Sorry, Porfyhr, but I don't understand what you wrote above. If you linguists try to use the Swedish word whenever possible, why would you prefer the English word here?

We don´t have any other words that are more suitable.

"Partner-s" is a swedish word with its origine in english. We do not, as I wrote, invent new words like the islandics do. We accept foreing words and incorporate them into our language.

Swedish is a small language and therefore are mainly linguists involved in the preservation of the language.
I hope you´ll understand this time.

I think I got it this time. Thanks for the corrections (and explanations) - at least now I understand the reference to Icelandic!
