Foreigners, what’s the name for Asperger Syndrome in your countries? In mine, we call it Zespol Aspergera (I’m typing this with no diacritics) so we don’t call it AS for short but ZA.

Aspergers Syndrom in Danish. Pretty much the same as in English.

"Asperger Syndrom", or "Asperger syndromet", "The asperger syndrome".

Aspergers Syndrom. Just remove the e and the ' and you're set.

Off topic, but I can't help remarking how we have Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish replies all in a row

But it also referred to as "Asperger" by some people, but that is true for a lot of "syndromen".

Correct, also 'Aspergers syndroom'.

The morons here in Bergen op Zoom, just call me assh*le but that probably says more about me than the deviation I've got. And to enhance that a little.... I think there isn't a city with this many ret*ds (yet proud as peacocks) per square km in Holland.

I don't speak French, but I think in French it's Syndrome d'Asperger.

In Cuban Spanish, it's probably "Contrarrevolucionario".

That list will give me something to do, when I stay home, tonight. I can teach myself to say Asperger's Syndrome in many different languages. :cool:
