Questions

How many English-speaking translators are there in Sweden?
We list 29, in 4 cities. That is the number whose working language we can trace to a published source, not the number that exists.
Which city has the most?
Stockholm, with 21 of the 29.
Is English unusual for translators in Sweden?
34% of the 86 translators we hold in Sweden are recorded as working in English. Most of them come from Kammarkollegiet, Sweden's authority for authorised translators, a register that records the languages each provider offers, so the figure reflects who that register covers, not only who speaks what.
