Hey, I'm Fredrik and this is episode one and introduction of a series of lessons in the swedish language. I'm focusing on conversational swedish with a weird twist to make it more fun. This is not how to book and order stuff in swedish, you'll get by perfectly with english. This is for those who just want to learn the language because they like it and want to experience the culture from within. Here's the dialogue in script: M: Hej! G: Hej M: Jag tycker du är söt G: Haha, tack! Är du turist? M: Ja. Jag kommer från människobyn. -- Here's the translation: Hej – Hi Jag tycker – I think Du är söt – You are cute Tack – Thanks Är du turist – Are you a tourist (literally are you tourist) Ja – Yes Jag kommer från – I come from Människobyn – the man village -- Here's the language points: 1. I'm a tourist - Jag är turist I'm a doctor - Jag är läkare I'm a mum - Jag är mamma Though if you wanna say "I'm a horse" or something weird like that, the you actually say "jag är en häst" 2. Jag - pronounced like "ja" Är - pronounced like "ä" -- Bye for now, I welcome any feedback you might have!
