When you're a swede and your own language is giving you a headache XD I mean usually you just talk without thinking about any of this and when you really think about it it's just headache inducing. Kind of like “English can be weird. It can be understood through tough thorough thought, though.”

Its funny with this pitch accents. I'm (normally) a coach driver. Usually when a tourleader asks me my name, i pronounce Jonas in english because, it works for me. But, with a japanese tourleader, I pronounce it in swedish, because they can hear that pitch accent. I also think chinese people can hear it as they also have pitch accents.

The pitch accent is the best part of speaking Swedish. When I was learning Swedish (in Sweden - and Skånska for that matter) I spent about a year in the language lab with a very patient teacher who helped me master the pitch accent and sentence stress. With the pitch accent, it's important to be able to hear it in your own head too - this is why for a learner, recording and playing back, and fine-tuning the pitch accent, is an important technique to learning it.

Hearing the word, it's really easy to see why people in the past spelled words as they sounded and with varying spellings, especially prior to 1800. In the 1500s and 1600s they wrote the long syllables as they sounded, so measure "mätta" would have been spelled "määtta", Riga would be spelled "Rijga", "resa" as "reesa", "tro" as "troo", etc.

Given the virus going around and living in a middle of nowhere part of Germany, God only knows when it would ever be possible to have an instructor. This part might require going to some institute, but double points for a person who can help me with the Braille an Swedish oh my God. Countless hours of research Regarding Scandinavian braille. I knew a girl from Norway she knew obviously how to write both Norwegian forms in braille. It was really cool. Sure as hell helps with proper spelling. I forgot how to spell a lot of things in German after getting my degree in music education simply because I wasn’t writing any of those big papers anymore. When I moved to this area, we were able to find somebody to teach me German braille. Yes the spelling is no longer disastrous.

Nice video. I think since it is a sighted World, many people without any disability are either monolingual and have a hard time learning another language or, focus too much on looking and seeing instead of listening. Hense listening how words with different pitch tones sound. I’m severely visually impaired. Clearly things like subtitles are absolutely useless. I have a friend who is totally blind he speaks 11 different languages. Unfortunately none of the Scandinavian ones. Still want to do Swedish at some point but the problem is deciding what language to do because I want to do this one oh no wait... that one instead. It’s a little frustrating for anybody who is a language geek. I think watching your videos more and more I recently came across, convincing me to do Swedish.

Hallå, min vän! I have been really making great strides in Swedish thanks to you and your channel, it is quickly becoming my third language. I had a question about this, I was studying in Rosetta Stone and I noticed that the written form was "Det är (rest of the sentence)" I noticed that the voice said it more like "de --- (rest of the sentence)" with no pronuciation on the "är", so my question is, is that because of the rules you discuss here, or is it kind of (for lack of a better term) a French principle that I don't know. Like how "Comment alle vou" pronunced like "Come 'tali vou". Mycket tack! Hej då.
@sayitinswedish 3 жыл бұрын
You've come across a super common reduction here. So "det" is usually pronounced "de" and "är" can have several pronunciations, of which one is "e".

As I said in the video, a word with two syllables could have the second accent. If it's a compound it will also get that. Thinking about it, if I create some gibberish word in Swedish with two syllables, it will be with that melodic accent.

I guess celeste3100 is a Spanish speaker (judging by your name). In Spanish, in order to indicate the stressed syllable we put ´ over the stressed vowel, so á and a, are just the same. Swedish is not like that. Å, Ä, and Ö are vowels on their own, and stress... you just need to know it.

@@sayitinswedish Yup, my bad. I'm not a Mandarin speaker myself, I want to learn it after I get rather fluent in Swedish, but I've taken a look at its tones, and the first tone is a higher pitch, constant sound, the second tone is an ascending tone, the third is a slight descend followed by a slight ascend, and the fourth tone is a descending one. The trick to remember is their diacritics, ā, á, ă, à. The Swedish acute accent IMO sounds more like a high pitched constant sound rather than an actual ascending sound.
