Swedish language basics
Swedish is a North Germanic language spoken by over 10 million people, mainly in Sweden and parts of Finland. The language uses the Latin alphabet with three additional letters: å, ä, and ö. Some of the basic phrases in Swedish include "hej" for "hello", "tack" for "thank you", and "ursäkta" for "excuse me". Pronunciation can be tricky with some vowels and consonants being pronounced differently than in English. Swedish grammar is also different, with word order being more flexible and the use of gendered articles. Overall, learning Swedish basics can open up opportunities to communicate with Swedish-speaking people and better appreciate Scandinavian culture.
