Tack så mycket! I started learning svenska about a month ago. I have books, and books and more books. None really come out and just say what you did in this video. When you said (paraphrasing here) "There aren't really any rules, you just have to learn it." Okay! And WOW this video has done more for my pronunciation than anything so far.
Well that was a very constructive comment XD Don't know if it's a comfort to those of you learning Swedish but I'm a native swede and this gave me a headache, lol. Always forget how much we just Know without being able to give a rule to why. As a fellow swede with a "widely" different dialect (I would consider karlskronitiska widely different) I cannot tell you how exited I am for the dialect video. I personally love talking about dialects, always get excited when I hear someone with a different dialect. "Oh, hello and where are you from?" (says the city a handful of miles away, yes dialects is/can be that local) Proceeds to spend an hour/hours talking about dialects and local words etc. XD To add: Usually local's to a region can differ from each other's city's while those who live/grew up farther away doesn't hear a difference. usually blekinge gets coupled together with skåne (southern tip of Sweden) by those who live up north. (which is kind of offensive to us /jk "kinda") lol
Very, very constructive! I've been wanting to make videos about dialects for a long time, so I thought, let's begin with my own. It could be super interesting for Swedes as well to get to know what's characteristic for their own speech.
@@sayitinswedish The whole reason to why I'm subbed is because I find it so interesting to sort of get someone looking at things with an outside perspective from the inside so to speak. I find it good to step outside and look at things from a different perspective, it adds so much when you later want to discuss/talk about sweden/swedish ^^
I've always likened the 'sj' sound to kinda how Stewie says 'cool whip' in Family Guy, with his emphasis on the 'h' sound. Practicing that, got my tongue around 'sj' 😊
If it makes anyone feel better, I learned French from scratch and it’s 100 times harder to spell than Swedish. I think Swedish spelling patterns can be picked up pretty easily just by reading and memorizing.
Me: I can speak Italian, English, French, Spanish… I completed the A1 Chinese curse in a single month and I didn’t even enjoyed it…Swedish must be easier! Nothing can be harder than Chinese accents, right? Me after 3 pages of the grammar book: åh skit.
Enjoyed reading the comment at the start accompanied by hearing your amazing translation of what they were saying lol Love your videos for relearning! I'm still figuring out about dialects because sometimes I learn something and think "oh no I've been pronouncing it wrong for so long" only to find out that I was pronouncing it how it is said were I grew up (Sundsvall) 😥 always interesting to hear more about it! I actually would pronounce stjärna with the "shh" type sound same for choklad but I'm not sure if thats a "my area" thing or my accent got lazy and I'm too scared to ask my family and friends from there with how much my Swedish declined since childhood. Really informative video as always!
@@sayitinswedish yeah! I moved from Sweden in 2009 to the UK I wasn't speaking it enough but I'm trying to gain it back. Your videos have been super helpful!
It's even harder and more variaties in a dialectal way to speak. Even though if some are somewhat dying and renewed. Dialects have own words too which could have a different meaning of what you learnt it meant. The variaties are locally and situational.
It's funny that "dusch" means "shower" in Swedish, because "una ducha" is "a shower" in Spanish, and, if I'm remembering correctly, "duchar" is the infinitive "shower."
At first I thought du -> ru was odd, then you gave the example sentence and I was like OH. At least when I speak quickly in English I don't know turns into I dunno which turns into I rro (hard to explain without audio but it feels similar)

Would "hagel" have a G or J sound? It has been some time since I studied Swedish but I remember that there are some words containing ...age... that have a G sound while others have J. Or maybe, just maybe, there is a difference between some dialects again. While us Finns get taught "mandatory Swedish" in school, we are often given a very approximative pronunciation model, by which our speech will mostly be understood, but which doesn't necessarily go into nuances between dialects, and may make it hard for us to understand some of them.

Hi, I would like to ask you a clarification on the aspiration of p. You mentioned that p, as well as t and k, is aspirated when it is in the beginning of a word and when that syllable it belongs to is stressed. And you mentioned as an example the word polis. And although in ''polis'' the p is in the beginning of the word, the stress is not on the first syllable but on the second. [pol'i:s] So why is p still aspirated? Thanks.
I am particularly struggling with the pressed "ij" that is appearing everywhere like in "fika" for example.... I am fluent in German but it's so hard to pronounce this hahah.
"I åa ä e ö, å i öa ä e å" is a complete, grammatically correct sentence in Värmland dialect. (Standard Swedish: I ån finns det en ö, och på ön finns det en å.)
Love these videos. I said this on another comment don’t remember which video. Not relevant anyway… it’s nice to come across learning a language, emphasizing the importance of pronunciation. Example, so many people just do the turn on your subtitles and you are good to go.“ Doesn’t work that way when you’re blind or severely visually impaired unless you have an extremely expensive smart TV to hook up the audio description. Those things are not cheap. Writing is important, but listening to how native speakers say certain things is just as relevant.
I think, many of those words can be pronounce a lot easier in some places in Sweden, because as we all know, Swedish can be very different in different places. I think that words like "diskussion" or "stattion" can be pronounce like it's spelled..without this H sound. Let me know what do you think 'bout that.
Most of this is only important if you are trying to become a spy and need to sound native. I'm make a video about the most important things to pull of for Swedes to understand you/not get tired of listening to you.
"Fjäll" are tall mountains in the Nordic countries. I would say it refers more to the high up terrain than the mountain itself. It's common to say that you go to "fjällen" (plural) to ski, which means that you go to the mountainy areas of Sweden.
Fjäll is a mountain (berg) that reaches above the tree line, meaning there will not be any tree growth on its top. Just a more describing name than the general “berg”, which means any type of mountain.
I lierally can't understand what is the sound in words schach and chef, is it [h] with super intense attack (or aspiration?) sometimes it seems to me I hear [u] sound besides [h] or even [ua] /[ue]
I seem to be having trouble with the pronunciation differences between i and y. From what I was watching your mouth do when you pronounce i is like you're saying an e and when I watched you pronounce the y it appeared like you made your lips look like you were making a oooo but actually making an eee noise. Is that correct? Sorry this is a long question.
The sje-ljud isn't the most difficult swedish sound for me. It's the "i" sound. Swedish "i" isn't like any other I've ever heard. Btw, this video is incredible good and helpful! Tack så mycket!

Come on now, the grammar is easy (=
@@sayitinswedish yes, the grammar seems quite simple…the main problem for me is the pronunciation! 😅 but nothing is impossible 💪🏻😎
The easiest way (for me) to get the SJ/SI etc. sound right is think of how you say "wh" in white, then stick an H on the front of that.."hwh".
What I have learnt from these videos is that instead of getting into the rules just memorise the pronunciation.
that's definitely better, but everyone learns differently and some people like to really get indepth with this

There is a logic if you know the origin of the word. But pronounciation has often changed with time.
This is my take on English. Perfectly phonetic… just slurred for a thousand years

I have seen that there are 2 words for mountain in Swedish: berg and fjäll. Is it really so and what is the difference between them?
