I work at Swedish Hospital in Seattle - so named because the hospital was founded by members of the Seattle Swedish-American community a hundred years or so ago. Many employees and patients are of Swedish descent, and confirmed the last line as "You are cute"
Maybe cute/sweet little a dimunitive form of endearment?

For the sake of interest, tidied up the meanings.
| Spoiler (Rollover to View): |
1. I want to kiss you
2. Let's Dance
3. I love my bike - do you love me?!
4. Chinese (as in meal) or my place?!
5. You wake the tiger in me!
6. You are sweet!
|
Poor Von, some of these would have got me.
Also I may be wrong, but

The Dutch one doesn't seem quite right
"Ik houd van mijn fiets — houd jij van mij?" would seem to be correct. Babel accepts this.

Best guesses:

3. I like my bicycle - do you like mine?!
4. What you ? haze!
|
Not sure that helps much more!

[Flame Set] #006 - Winning Lines
For 2 points signed by Garnet
Text reads-
1 vorrei baciarti!
2 [upside down ?]vamos a bailar?
3 ik hou van mijn fiets - hou jij van mir?!
4 on mange chinois ou chez toi?!
5 du weckst den tiger in mir!
6 vad du är söt!
Von was out in a bar one night and secided to try a new approach to picking up women. Given the recent fad for everything Earth-related, maybe the earth chat-up lines he'd read about would work. Sadly, he never got around to looking up their meanings, and shockingly, none of them worked - even with Von's Charm.
what languages did he attempt to woo the ladies with?
(if any one could tell me where an upside down ? is, i couldnt find it in my symbols page, I will be happy to change it when i can) (and sorry no scanner for use)
