I posted in a conversation between a woman from India and another from Sweden in a group online. The Swedish woman's name is Linnea, and I said that there's a Swedish bakery called Linnea's in Kenosha, Wisconsin where I grew up that's *soooo* good.
Then I looked at the words Kenosha and Wisconsin and thought the place-names that those women are used to and wondered if Kenosha Wisconsin just looks like an exotic and mysterious jumble of letters to them like Indian and Swedish place-names look to me.
