Isnt the sun the actual lamp and all others the forbidden ones? Like they try to orient at the sun when wanting to rise higher, that's why they get caught by artificial light no?

    My understanding is that light directly above is their method of determining how to stay upright, so artificial lights cause them to think up is towards the light, so attempting to go in a straight line puts them in orbit around it.

    They aren’t trying to go towards the light at all. They’re attempting to go perpendicular to the light.

    My son and I were backpacking and we found a nice spot and had a fire but the moths were out in force and suicide bombing this fire. We put it out because burning moths were jumping out and we were genuinely worried about kamakaze moths starting a forest fire. It was crazy

    Ø and Ä don't belong in the same alphabet...

    Swedish, no?

    Or do they use Ö instead of Ø? I noticed Ä tends to replace the Æ in other Skandinavisk languages. I'm guessing Ü replaces Å? (I've never studied Swedish)

    Swedish uses Ö + Ä. The rest of us use Ø + Æ. Both alphabets use Å, but that's a separate letter. Ü isn't used in scandinavian languages (Only language I knowbthat uses it is German)

    Turkish uses ü and ö but no ä so that's also a combination.

    Btw: Swedish used to have the Skandian letters but changed it due to reformation (to be more similar to German) and because their relationship to distance themselves from Norway due to political reasons

    Good to know, thanks. Yeah, kamelüsü wouldn't sound right now that you mention it. But brör sounds the same as brør, and skändes sounds the same as skændes.

    Again, I've never studied Swedish. I'm just basing this off the pronunciations in German and Danish, which I know aren't perfect analogues, but it seems to generally make sense

    Life hack: the forbidden light in the night is less bright but much closer so decide depending on your flying skills which one to go for
