You are appropriating from a large cultural grouping (though similar) and the cultural cohesion just gives the game a deep-seated sense of history and actuality. Just grab an online name list, or a small english to Scandinavian dictionary handy at the table for those spout lore rolls.Gold is actually Gull in norse, in swedish its Guld. also mynt = Coins
Its good to replace common terms with the Norsk equivalent too. So Castle becomes Slott, sorcery becomes Trolldom, a Knight is a Ridder, gold is mynt etc...
Slott is the same in both norweigen and swedish, knight we use riddare.
One Riddare(knight), many riddare (knights)...swedish is a hard and sometimes weird language.
