More like my cousin wouldn't tattle on me, I think. Like it wouldn't occur to him to hang up and immediately call my brother to tell him how weird I'm being.
[No, wait, Emil, this is supposed to be Tuuri's freakout.]
Your Swedish is fine! Your English is probably fine! I've never heard of them messing with someone's languages unless they learn a new one-- maybe you better try listening to different languages online to make sure you don't know a new one? Icelandic is totally new to me! It would be very low on my list of languages to learn!
Oh no, what if I can't speak Swedish anymore, but I can speak Danish? I don't want to speak Danish! I'll still be able to text my mom and everything, but then I can never call her again...
[ SO MUCH FREAKING OUT, WHY DID YOU THINK EMIL WOULD BE A GOOD PERSON TO COME TO ABOUT THIS ]
[ Oh god he just always thought it was in Finnish for some reason, partially due to the inscrutable death metal screeching and partially due to the fact that he hasn't actually listened to this song since he was 8 and his English vocabulary did not in fact include the words "hard," "rock," or "hallelujah." ]

[At least Emil's freakout was helping her put her own in perspective...
She follows the link-- obviously she knows the song as soon as she hears it, but wonders why Emil linked it to her.]
Uh, yeah, I'm not worried about my English. [No way, could he be--] Wait, don't you understand it?!

This song's in English?

Wait, wait, I know other Finnish songs!
[ He does not ]
What about this one?

[Like, seriously man, double check on that. Still, she opens the next one.]
Oh, cute, you know this one too! And I do still understand it, even if it's mostly gibberish. So that's a good sign!

[ If his roommate isn't just being polite, which... ]
Wait, isn't it supposed to be not... gibberish if you can understand it?
[ How is Finnish confusing if you're Finnish? ]

What about this one? It's one of my favorites!

Okay, I got that one! I guess I don't have to worry about Finnish. Or at least not Finnish sports songs.
Thanks, Emil.
