In this workshop we go straight to the exercises. All the theory you may need is in the previous workshop . Exercises Vi hade ett ____________ ____________ förra veckan. (ett samtal, trevlig) We had a nice conversation last week. Ett ____________ kan vara ____________. (ett samtal, trevlig) A conversation can be nice. Vi pratade om ett ____________ ____________ igår. (ett ämne, vacker) We talked about a beautiful topic yesterday. Vi pratade om ett ____________ som var väldi

Yes, we're doing the same thing again. :) Because... it's very important. If one wants to speak Swedish correctly, this is a big part of it - how to combine nouns with pronouns and adjectives. So let's go to work and repeat what we've learned so far! Exercises Ett-nouns ending in consonants - fill in the table: indefinite singular definite singular indefinite plural definite plural ett äktenskap a marriage the marriage marriages the marriages a roof the roof tak roofs the roo

So let's complicate the situation a little more, let's add another component to ett-nouns and pronouns – adjectives. Let's first see how adjectives are combined with ett-nouns only. indefinite singular definite singular indefinite plural definite plural ett stort bord a large table (det) stora bordet the large table stora bord large tables (de) stora borden the large tables A. Fill in the blanks! Jag har köpt ett ____________ bord. I have bought a large table. Han satt vid de

In the last three lessons we learned about ett-nouns, how they change form. They can take on plural or singular forms, and each of these two can take on an indefinite and a definite form. A. Fill in the blank spaces with appropriate forms of the word ett bord. obestämd singular (indefinite singular) Jag skulle vilja köpa ____________ till mitt rum. I would like to buy a table for my room. bestämd singular (definite singular) ____________ jag såg på IKEA var fint. The table I

When we use a noun in combination with demonstrative or possessive pronouns, we need to know which form, definite or indefinite, we should use. Let's first look at what demonstrative and possessive pronouns are. Demonstrative pronouns with en-nouns with ett-nouns with plural den this, that det this, that de these, those den här this det här this de här these den där that det där that de där those denna this, that detta this, that dessa these, those Possessive pronouns persona

Last time we learned that when it comes to how ett-nouns change form, we divide them into two groups – check out the suffixes before you start the exercises: ett-nouns that end on indefinite singular definite singular indefinite plural definite plural a consonant - ett avtal a contract -et avtalet the contracts - avtal contracts -en avtalen the contracts a vowel - ett ansikte a face -t ansiktet the face -n ansikten faces -na ansiktena the faces Here's the link if you need to

Let's take a break from verbs and change context to nouns. For today's topic, I chose singular nouns. Let's learn how they behave when they change from singular to plural or from indefinite to definite form. I'm sure we all know the difference between singular and plural (en katt, många katter), but it's not always clear what the terms indefinite and definite mean. For example, my mother tongue doesn't have such grammatical constructions. On the other hand, English and Swedis

Last time we learned about two more groups within the larger group of strong verbs. A reminder: strong verbs have some irregularities compared to the first three verb groups, but their subgroups do follow their own rules, and knowing these rules helps us use those verbs in an easier way. Here are the two subgroups we studied last time and their representatives: 1) verbs whose verb stem contains a u att sjunga Sjung! sjunger sjöng har sjungit to sing att njuta Njut! njuter nj

Today we have two other groups of strong verbs that exhibit certain regularities when it comes to changing tenses and forms. One is that contains u, and the other contains y in its verb stem. In the second group, there is a variation in perfekt when verbs whose verb stem is based on the vowel y also contain a consonant s. Here are the rules for how to form their tenses and forms: tenses: presens, preteritum, perfekt; forms: infinitiv, imperativ infinitiv imperativ presens pre
