I'll vote for 3 and 9, though I'm not sure why Swedes use erect poles
for their huts. Seems like norwegians or finns would be more readily
available. Maybe they're enamored by those southern slavic festivals.

[Paul Keating]

9 & 11 for me.

P

[Daniel B Widdis]

1 and 11 to prove I read them all

[Shani Naylor]

Russian for me - 2 & 11.

  2. [Russ.] Informal term for any type of collective enterprise, such as a farm
     or factory.

 11. [Rus.] A boorish or uncultured person; a peasant.

Hmm. Somehow 5 seems just unlikely enough to be plausible. I'll throw in 7 for lagniappe.

[Debbie Embler]

Voting for 7 and for #1 because I could hear the Star Wars theme music when I read it.
