Sometimes i think that Swedish language is specifically designed to confuse anyone who tries to learn it. For-för or ar-är confusion pales in comparison to awkwardness that mixing up kissa and kyssa can cause.

I speak Norwegian fluently and understand 95% of Swedish. I am fascinated with the differences. Swedish vowels are different. And the intonation and rhythm are different. I now understand why Norwegians sound deliriously happy to the Swedish ear. Anyway thanks for the upload. God Jul!!

As a German student who has been learning Swedish for the past four years, the language is rather easy. But it took me so long to get the right singsang and rolling the r. But after so long, I don't sound so stupid anymore😃

After visit a recent open IKEA store in a country that speaks only Spanish (I never imagine something like this happened, in my life) what a great opportunities to get in touch with Swedish, but learning German somehow helped me in, if not spoken here, at least have some help in understanding the Swedish language. Is interesting that IKEA became the best ambassador to Sweden I ever know of and I liked it. Great store and interesting language.

Swedish accent is by far the most beautiful accent I’ve ever heard in my entire life!

Yeah, I used to be fluent in French when I was 16, then it evaporated in just a couple of years due to lack of practice. It's just not *my* type of language. Swedish, on the other hand, feels so natural. Jag tycker att svenska är världens vackraste språk (jag hade lyssnat på alla europeiska språk). Så började jag att lära mig svenska i november 2022, och jag älskar det mycket ❤

Thanks for the very helpful and informative video!! I'm kind of confused about the sentence "Pastan äter människorna" though, because I would have assumed this to mean "The pasta is eating the people" (which doesn't make sense, of course 😂) because of the word order. Can the subject and object of a sentence simply be switched like that? How do you know which is which (in cases where it's less straightforward from context)? What are the rules for this? 🤔

I’ve been practicing my Swedish accent can you tell?

12:59 As if English isn’t any weirder. The pitch accent, it’s worth noting, is vaguely reminiscent of tonal languages like Vietnamese, Chinese, or Croatian. Also, the ä is more similar to English A, so it helps to visualize that when pronouncing it. By the way, isn’t ananas a loan word from Polish?

Pretty much the whole world calls it ananas, it's just english speaking countries that call it pineapple.

Hej, Daniella! Jag har en fråga / Jag vill fråga dig - is there a difference between "Längtar efter" and "Saknar" - in the context of "I miss somebody"?

@EmmaSuprema888

Жыл бұрын

I'm not Daniella, but I can tell you that "Jag längtar efter dig" would translate as "I long for you / I'm longing for you", whereas "Jag saknar dig" would be "I miss you". "Saknar" also has the meaning of "missing" such as in a context of a "chair missing a screw", or "stolen saknar en skruv". Therefore, "saknar" is literally "being without / missing". I hope I managed to clarify things for you.

Ok, so French rules of pronounciation are sim😊le because the vowels are always pronounced the same. It's just endings of words that are written but not pronounced that are challenges. Oh, and the cédille just keeps the "c" sound soft when it would otherwise be a hard "c", like in the word "français". Without the cédille, tgat "c" would be pronounced with a hard "k" sound

Mais pourquoi tous les scandinaves ont cette manie d'apprendre l'anglais? Je suis français et comme la majorité des français je ne parle pas un mot d'anglais. Je trouve vraiment dommage que tout le monde parle anglais dans un si beau pays comme la suède. On dirait que vous reniez votre culture, que vous avez honte de votre propre langue. Votre attitude ne fait que renforcer l'impression qu'on les anglophone que le monde entier est une immense colonie britannique.

Scandinavian people always say that it is a waste of time to try to learn their languages because they already speak English,so,why am I watching this?I have the impression that people from Scandinavia are not proud of themselves,they should be proud of their cultures and languages
