    Teaching this in English is 1000% better than the immersion they are trying to do in SFI... Getting instructions in Swedish for complex aspects of grammar is hard enough to understand in English. :) Thank you so much for doing this!

    guess i am one of the few that greatly prefer the videos in swedish. you explain and gesture and write everything so well that it is easy to figure out what you mean, even if i do not understand the word you said. granted, i have been learning swedish on my own for a little while. but still... it helps so much to hear it spoken more. can actually start understanding without having to "translate" every sentence in my head. i love it. (i did see you reply to someone else that you are going to continue doing these in swedish, too. just wanted to give my two cents that one of the best ways to learn a language is like this... kind of "language parenting", like a child learns it. so i have been very grateful to watch 2 of these videos every day. i started from the beginning and am only to this point. have a lot to go still. haha but i am looking forward to every one of them)

    English and other languages have what we call 1.open class words/ this means words that can enter to your idiom easily, and we have 2. close class words/ this means words that cannot enter to other languages. The 1. Open Class words are the nouns and adjectives. 2. Closed Class words are the verbs and adverse. For example in spanish we have to many Arabismis words the entered to spanish many years ago most of then are begining with Al, like alambre = wire, Alicante. Alcanfor, Alquitran = Katran in arabic. Also we have Germanism like bunker, and Americanisms from the English idiom or tongue and many others. Good luck, Peter.

    What most of the learners don't realize. English has been influenced by Feench and Latin extremely. One could say crashed or penetrated by those two. For example it has not been normalized since 500 years, as you can see how different some words are spoken and written. And the Latin/ French influence is why in English, you have SVO sentence structure. And this makes English the big exception in Germanic language family, as all other, like German, Swedish, Icelandic, Dutch, Norwegian, Afrikaans, Danish, Faroese have Verb2 sentence structure. It is really funny as even German beginners in Swedish (including myself) make this mistake "Imorgon jag dricker kaffe". It's surely because most people are learnikg English as their motherlanguage or their first foreign language and the brain always tries to connect similarities and take shortcuts

    Hi Peter, thanks for this video! I'd like to ask for more Swedish grammar in English from you on this channel, if possible! Also, I have two questions about this video and will be grateful if you can clarify: 1. What are the reasons to use inversion in Swedish? For instance, why may a Swedish person want to say "På morgonen dricker jag kaffe" instead of "Jag dricker kaffe på morgonen"? Are inverted sentences more unusual or as common as direct ones? The reason for asking - I don't know how often I have to invert sentences, because obviously it's easier to use the direct order. 2. In the end of the video you've used the example of "help verbs" "ska" and "vill" demonstrating how they are used in the direct order, but you haven't shown how the sentences would look like with these "ska" and "vill" verbs in the reverse order. Can you please write this example?

  • @petersfi6089

    @petersfi6089

    2 жыл бұрын

    1. Inverted sentences are pretty common. The key is that the verb needs to come in second place. "Jag studerar efter lunch." / "Efter lunch studerar jag." 2. Hjälpverb functions the same way. "Jag ska laga mat i eftermiddag." / "I eftermiddag ska jag laga mat."

The first part of the sentance is usually what is stressed the most. So if someone asked you, "WHEN are you studying today?" You may want to begin the sentance with, "Efter lunch..." as the individual was asking you WHEN. (Again, not an expert. I may be wrong.)
