There are a few scenes in this series where two characters speak in Scandinavian languages. One actor is Danish and the other Swedish, and there is a distinct difference between the way they pronounce the vowel in word for "life". Are they speaking in their respective languages here? Link to a video clip of a scene. I'm referring to the vampires, not the soldiers.

Both speak Swedish from what I can hear, but the Dane has a distinct Danish accent.

Thanks. He also has a distinct accent in English as well. I heard him say "proodal" with an unaspirated "p" several times before realizing he said "brutal"!
