Thank you so much! This video was a perfect review for my "nationellt prov" that I have on Saturday. I recognized all mistakes! :) But I am struggling with proper use of verbs ställa, sätta and lägga. I have a feeling that you have some magic tips to help with this :)
Om Extravokaler: Håll min öl! Vi har också "ü" och "ß" i vårt alfabet. "ü" låter som "u" i "du" och "ß" är vad vi brukar använda när vi har ett skarpt "s", speciellt om vi har en långt vokal förre.
A great way to remember “hit” and “dit” (for me, at least) is the English words “hither” and “thither.” So when I jokingly say “come hither” (come to where I am), it translates directly into Swedish as “kom hit.” Some English speakers may not be as familiar with these words because they are a bit dated, but still a great way to remember.
Tack så mycket!! Your videos are very informative and fun at the same time. I recently discovered the channel and since it’s been a lot more fun learning Swedish. Thanks so much!
I always thought that gå and åka are interesting cases when it comes to comparing them to English. Gå sounds like go, whereas åka sounds like walk(a) yet their meaning is reversed.
Hej!🥰 I started learning Swedish a few days ago and I couldn't really recognize the mistakes because I don't even know all basics...but I recognize its similiar to German (which I speak) and I decided to learn it. Your channel is really helpful. Tack! Greetings from Bosnia🇧🇦🥰
A few days ago! Then it is completely understandable. 😊 This is more of an almost intermediate level video 🤔. But we have lots of videos for beginner videos in our channel. (Check them out!) Plus some very intersting video courses that might be helpful as well!
you explain things so well. all my questions are answered and i like the fun animations you put in too! im walking through my apartment singing " ohh ahhh errr, ohh ahh err!" :)
Okej. Tack så mycket. Uttal och sammansättning är mycket viktiga och kan vara svart att fatta. Om du visar en riktlinje om hur det går att förstå båda ämnena är du snäll.
Excelente! I discovered the channel today and is great! My native language is Spanish and I am interested in learning Swedish. Congrats! Everything is clear.
I love learning new languages specially swedish, I also teach and share some of my Swedish words that I learn to my friends!, I love this channel and 100% recommended learning here! ❤️

2 months of Duolingo (and watching some tv series like Bonusfamijlen, Leif och Billy, Snabba Cash, Kärlek och Arnaki etc) and I spotted them all except for förra helgEN and December (even though I knew the rule for this one; I guess it's because the spelling is the exact same, and we're so used to see it capitalized in English). Tack för videon!
Yes, I loved this! A few of them tripped me up. I still can't always get the "think" words right. I knew that's what was wrong with the one, but then I went with tror. Someday I will get them right! Thank you!

I'm starting to get massoquist hahaha. I sometimes mix this up with German and English even though both have similarities, I have to remind myself that Swedish has its peculiarities. Even if it is still a Germanic language.
Hej Fun Swedish I just wanted to tell you that I have recommended you on a walking channel where subscribers are interested in Sweden and the language 😊😊
The dog bit was a good ongoing joke! All of these words that mean the same thing but for different contexts seem like they'll take a long time to get used to, what is the reason they come up so often is it really that helpful?
Hejsan! Jag har precis hittat dig. Jag är en svensk, som bor i England och ofta hör när vänner försöker uttala svenska ord. Har du gjort en video om k uttalas? Katt vs kit, till exempel. Att förklara hårda och mjuka vokaler och hur de påverkar olika konsonanter är inte lätt. Kul video. Jag tittade på Svenska Nationaldagen för en liten stund sedan.
Hej Mia! Tack för ditt meddelande. Ja, det har vi faktiskt gjort :) Här är länken till den ua-cam.com/video/sCjvYnZmD3o/v-deo.html&ab_channel=FunSwedish
Någon jag har tänkt på att många har svårt för i svenskan är skillnaden mellan "ska" och "kommer att". Till exempel att de säger "Det ska bli blött på marken av regnet" istället för "Det kommer att bli blött på marken av regnet"
Interesting... In the last sentence, even though it's written "idag är det den [...]" you pronounced as "idaren [...]". Are these contractions (reductions?) common in spoken Swedish?
I notice that i (as a native swedish speaker) speak my sentences backwards from how you tell them in this video. I would probably not say "Förra helgen var jag i Paris" I say it like: "Jag var i Paris förra helgen" and I also say "Jag skall köpa en kanelbulle idag" and not "Idag skall jag köpa en kanelbulle". Just wanted to say this to people who maybe get confused as some of us speaks a bit different appart from pronunciation and other stuff. (There is no difference between "skall" och "ska" in writing "skall" is just an older way of spelling. But it can also be a dogs bark. Just a bit confused by my own L1 here. :D)
Hej Anton, vi säger också "Jag var i i Paris förra helgen" oftare men vi lyfte upp denna ordning för den existerar också. Speciellt i frågor. Vad gjorde du förra helgen? Förra helgen var jag i Paris. Och när man säger denna version så brukar det oftare uppstå fel för många som lär sig svenska då man tänker som på engelska och säger/skriver "förra helgen jag var i i Paris". Därför lyfte vi upp det 🙂
@@FunSwedish Helt förståeligt och okej. Jag ville bara upplysa folk om att vi i Sverige kan komma att uttrycka samma sak något olika men att inget av det är fel. Jag har många kamrater från andra länder som har blivit förvirrade på grund av det. Trevlig helg. :)
Jag visste att något var med nummer 8 och jag kunde inte komma på det, sedan visar du det och jag börjar bara skratta åt hur uppenbart det var|. bra video hej från Jönköping
Hey, do you put the verb on the second part like Geman or only with words about time? I mean, German people use "Today will I to bed at 10 pm go". Do you use something like this? I'm trying to understand the logic of logical languages even if I've started learning non logical languages firstly (English and French)
Tekniskt sett skulle nr.2 även kunna översättas till "jag tror att det är en dålig idé" även om tycker är den vanligare översättningen så beror det ändå på sammanhanget...
Haha, good question. If they use theyr "feet" to walk then it is ok to say "gå" but as soon as they use some kind of transportation to get to Norway (car, bus etc) then "åka" would be more appropriate.
We talk about the preposition PÅ and practice it in our Lower Intermediate course. You should sign up :) It starts in 1 week. After this course you will understand PÅ and other prepositions so much better. Here is the link for more information about the course and how to sign up :) elansutbildning.com/product/falukorv-lower-intermediate/
@@FunSwedish I know. Well, I have been in college on and off for over a decade almost so, I am used to homework. I give myself homework? Right now, it's the Swedish word order.
I'm confused by the pronunciation at 11:37. It seems like you pronounce "det den" in a single syllable. I slowed it down, and still couldn't pull the two apart. Also, I should work more on my Swedish, I only spotted 6/10 mistakes.
LOL 1) det går bra att se( it walks well to see)....hur ska det ska gå (how will it walk) LOL 3) jag känner Anders ( I feel Anders ) LOL 3) jag är här nu ( I am (military) troup now) , kom här nu ( come troup/army now) , jag är här ( I am army), kom hit nu ( come hit ( music) now) ... god hjul "good juul". ben ( fish bone).... in finnish : ruoto ben ( leg ) .............in finnish : jalka ben ( bone) ..........in finnish : luu ro bakåt ( row backwards ) in finnish : huopaa lever ( lives ) in finnish : elää lever ( liver) in finnish : maksa i sjön - in the lake - järvessä in i sjön - into the lake - järveen till sjön - to the lake - järvelle ur sjön - from within the lake - järvestä från sjön - from the lake - järveltä
Regarding the last one, the spelling mistake, I wouldn't really say that we never capitalise months or days. If you want to read Swedish literature from the 1800s, you'd better get used to it, because back then it was still rather common. We should notice that days and months ARE names and the main rule is to capitalize names, so this rule in practice today is an exception. It follows the trend, started in the 1600s, when Swedish stopped capitalizing nouns, partly to distance the language from the previously strong German influence. I wouldn't really consider it an error, since it doesn't occur in spoken language and doesn't introduce any ambiguity. It's more of a nuisance because it differs to most other languages, without any real benefits. There are lots of rules in written Swedish that are kind of arbitrary and not really useful, this is one of those. Another one, which is a pet peeve of mine, is that trippel consonants is reduced to double consonants, which introduces a few ambiguities by "avstavningshomografer". This purely aesthetic and annoying rule was actually changed this year to allow them.
Good question! A) Idag SKA jag köpa en kanelbulle = Today I WILL buy a cinnamon bun (this is correct) B) Idag köpa jag en kanelbulle = Today buy I a cinnamon bun (not correct). The "ska" is missing. We need the "ska" (helpverb) to explain what we WILL do in the future (buy a cinnamon bun)
jag tycker att svenska är inte svårt för oss (jag är från Österrike och kan snacka engelska bra eftersom min pappa är amerikan) och när jag läser på svenska kan jag förstå det mesta, men satssyntaxen är helt annorlunda i bisatser (och det är svårt att tänka utan att behöva använda kasus!)
Try as I might, I can't hear you actually SAYING the "det den" in that last sentence! I even slowed it down to 0.5 speed and listened to it 10 times - I can't hear it T_T...
Let us know in the comments if you have struggled with any of these points! 🤔
Or what other things you struggle with and would like us to do a video about. 😊
Jag har jättesvårt med "ska" och "kommer att". En gång sa jag "så ska du märka att..." och min vän "Åh, nej, förlåt, det är fel. KOMMER du märka!!"
Thank you so much! This video was a perfect review for my "nationellt prov" that I have on Saturday. I recognized all mistakes! :) But I am struggling with proper use of verbs ställa, sätta and lägga. I have a feeling that you have some magic tips to help with this :)

Om Extravokaler: Håll min öl! Vi har också "ü" och "ß" i vårt alfabet. "ü" låter som "u" i "du" och "ß" är vad vi brukar använda när vi har ett skarpt "s", speciellt om vi har en långt vokal förre.
I always get confused when Swedes say in movies, "What are you doing?" but they phrase it differently somehow
A great way to remember “hit” and “dit” (for me, at least) is the English words “hither” and “thither.” So when I jokingly say “come hither” (come to where I am), it translates directly into Swedish as “kom hit.” Some English speakers may not be as familiar with these words because they are a bit dated, but still a great way to remember.
Thanks for sharing this little hack! Super good!

I'm half Swedish
It's true. It's kinda hard to get used to that rule where verb is in 2nd place. It's probably easier for someone who speaks German.
Keep Yoda in mind and it might be easier to remember 😂
@@FunSwedish that remember I will 😁

The last difficult example ; It is more common to skip "den". So ; " Idag är det första december"

"tror" would have worked as well. In that case you would be expressing it more along the ways of established fact than opinion.
”Tänker” is geting more common as well. I don’t think either of them are right or wrong. It depends on what you what to say.

@@FunSwedish lol, I meant vän, not vanner. Thank you that helps a bunch.
Try as I might, I can't hear you actually SAYING the "det den" in that last sentence! I even slowed it down to 0.5 speed and listened to it 10 times - I can't hear it T_T...
