You have to attend a course. I've had a year and 2 months of swedish and now i'm in Sweden and i still can't understand what most people say. It's like they had a hot potato in their mouths. I really don't think you can learn swedish by yourself.

I taught myself. Didn't take all that long either. I did have prior knowledge of German, though, which helped immensely.

We had someone coming to our course once who was self-tought (which we didn't know first). After he had finished speaking for a while, someone asked him what strange accent/dialect that was he was talking with. Then he said he was self-tought

Omg, that girl is so...
hmm... I am German and wasn't able to understand spoken Swedish after 2 months either...
I still only understand a few, but it really depends on who speaks.

^ Yeah, I meant moreover the theoretical aspect. German helped with that side of things, with the similarities of Germanic languages.

Perhaps you're used to being a wunderkind but don't you think you are expecting a bit too much after two months? The gap between being able to read Swedish and actually being able to understand spoken Swedish is unfortunately bigger than it seems.
And while we're on the subject of Swedish, maybe there's somone interested in a documentary on Swedish tv right now, Svenska Dialektmysterier . The first episodes are already online. Not too heavy topic but quite entertaining (Lindström
). And the incomprehensible parts are subtitled

Best damn program on TV ever! Me and my father always watches this. If you get the chance, you should also check out Värsta Språket - the program Lindström did a few years ago.
