Okay sure but "å" is actually an "o" sound.

Using "ä" would be way closer. It's the a you have in crash, ranch dressing, cat.

As compared to to like posh British accent, an American would use more a "gräss", and British posh person would use a low a graaasss.

And you prolly didn't even make it and this really doesn't matter at all, I just spending time

Nah it annoys me too. Guess thats a downside to knowing swedish/nordic languages. Ever since then every ikea meme bothers me because they keep using ø which swedish doesnt even have and also just generally use the wrong one. Tho idk which language and dialect you speak cause ä is much closer to enough for me in my småland accent.

That made me flinch. Reading it makes me hurt. Idk why, its such a small thing.

Correct use of "å", bravå. (Or "brava", depending on how you identify i guess.)

Only on the latter "a"
