It seems a good idea to have a sample text in many languages to test
the Unicode character set, but there are some semantic differences.
The Swedish text says, when translated, "I can eat glass without
hurting me", implying that a special technique must be used, whereas
the English text says "I can eat glass and it doesn't hurt me",
implying that no special technique is needed. :-)
