    Nu kanske inte den yngre generationen tjänar som måttstock för den hela svenska befolkningen. Jag är 35 och skulle kunna använda det. Kanske inte är mitt vanligaste ord, men ändå. Än är jag inte död och begraven.

    I'm a Hungarian whose family moved to Sweden a long time ago and I also lived there for a year (in rural Sweden). When I came back to Hungary and got a job as an English speaking tour guide, after one of my tours a man came to me and asked: "Are you Swedish?". I was so stunned that I could only mumble a "No, I'm Hungarian". Then he said: "I thought you are a Swede because you spoke English with Swedish accent". My jaw dropped as I never noticed it. But it made sense because I learned to speak English from Swedes and from nobody else.

    I have found that unvoiced for voiced sibilant is the real giveaway for Swedes who otherwise have a very good British English accent.

    This is my först time seeing this word and i dont get how or why its considered difficult 😂. I guess its like saying "his-hers-its own" However i have a question: are there possessive reflective pronouns for the rest of the pronouns? Or is it only for the 3rd person?

  • @sayitinswedish

    There is only one for the third person because there is no room for confusion with the other persons.

    I am Danish. If you want to learn a Scandinavian language, take Swedish. Why? Because the three of us understands each other, but speaking Swedish, you will do fine in Finland, too. Swedish is an official language in Finland, therefore many Finns speak Swedish.

    As a Norwegian, I would also say learn Swedish, and I would say that for two reasons. First because of the dialects in Norway. There are a crazy amount of dialects that can be hard to understand. Second reason is music. There is no language that is as beautiful when sung.

    I spend 3-6 months in a rural farming in the Kopparberg area and everyone has the vibe-y i to some degree, more common with women. I hear it in TV talk shows, regular TV, movies, basically everywhere. Most people I hang out with are over 30, mostly over 60. I have no contact with under 30’s. You're the first Swedish language KZreadr that rags on the sound that it's a poser thing to do. I've asked my friends about it and they have no idea what I'm talking about, they're unaware that they're making the sound.

  • @sayitinswedish
    @sayitinswedish21 күн бұрын

    Never said it's a poser thing to do. But foreigners think it's required to sound Swedish which it isn't. You can sound Swedish without it and the more extreme version sounds weird even to Swedes.

    I'm a bit confused, because I used to watch Scandinavian series and in some of them Swedish and Danish people meet and seem to understand each other quite well (like one is talking in Danish and the other one is answering in Swedish). It isn't true in real life?

  • @sayitinswedish

    Not so much with Danish and Swedish, no. As a Swede, you need quite a lot of exposure to understand spoken Danish.

    So, that's like the Turkish i-without-the-i-dot, they have an extra letter for that, together with the "normal" i with the dot. I noticed that already in the 1990s, but the Swedes I met then (in Southern Sweden) did not know how to explain that to me, they did not use it. But on SVT it was there very often ...

    That was fascinating. My first language is French and I studied English at uni so I'm no stranger to phonetics. Can I ask though: am I right in thinking that the letter 'ä' in the conjugated verb form 'är' is pronounced [e:] even though it is placed before an 'r'?

  • @sayitinswedish
    @sayitinswedishАй бұрын

    [e:] or [æ:] are common depending on the region, sometimes it does become an [æ:r] and sometimes that R turns into a retroflex consonant if the next word starts on an S, T, D, N, or L.

    This concept also lies in india i.e. ऋण/भार - this means you should not be in debt of anybody's favour whether it's money, food or either doing some bad to someone else , we have to repay those debts in next life(reborn) . So in order to attain enlightenment we don't want to be in debt of someone's favour Butttt..... In india we people treat guest as god (अतिथि देवो भवः) so we can not send our guest with empty stomach , we will cook even delicious food and feed them over. So the two ideologies clashes but we live with second one cause not everyone is concerned about afterlife, rebirth and enlightenment.

    I was an exchange student in Sweden Stockholm for a semester and among other courses, I needed to attend Swedish language course. They taught us academic Swedish but not the practical one which the people in the street were using. Though I hold a basic talk but swearing was not included in the syllabus but Swedes swear all the time.
