I spend 3-6 months in a rural farming in the Kopparberg area and everyone has the vibe-y i to some degree, more common with women. I hear it in TV talk shows, regular TV, movies, basically everywhere. Most people I hang out with are over 30, mostly over 60. I have no contact with under 30’s. You're the first Swedish language KZfaqr that rags on the sound that it's a poser thing to do. I've asked my friends about it and they have no idea what I'm talking about, they're unaware that they're making the sound.

I'm a bit confused, because I used to watch Scandinavian series and in some of them Swedish and Danish people meet and seem to understand each other quite well (like one is talking in Danish and the other one is answering in Swedish). It isn't true in real life?

For me "listening"is the most difficult part learning swedish doesnt matter how many swedish words I know 😭

I'm a writer doing a fantasy story that is based off Scandinavian Vikings and how would I portray an accent like those you spoke about in written form?

Iove this so much, thank you!

en underbar idee. tack!

I have a Swedish friend I text with and I ask for a VM at times. It's soft, precise and slow. A bedroom voice, omg.

So, that's like the Turkish i-without-the-i-dot, they have an extra letter for that, together with the "normal" i with the dot. I noticed that already in the 1990s, but the Swedes I met then (in Southern Sweden) did not know how to explain that to me, they did not use it. But on SVT it was there very often ...

İ am here because of Alexander skarsgârd

I knew already what technically fika was (a coffe and a biscuit) but I didn't knew the social side of it. Thanks for a good explanation. Yes, having a fika is a good habit - otherwise one may get burnt out with hard work pretty fast. Cheers! :)

Hi can you watch hazbin hotel

Need more videos from you!! You really help me and the community learn Swedish and the videos are so soothing ❤❤

Hey notch can you give me a minecraft pass?

swedish are extremely selfish ppl. so not a surprise.

i think i like swedish better than my first language it makes so much more sense 😭😭

Embodied by The Lost Vikings. The tiny vocal red-haired one is the Dane, the muscular serious blonde one the Norwegian and the frivolous fat blonde one one the Swede.

That was fascinating. My first language is French and I studied English at uni so I'm no stranger to phonetics. Can I ask though: am I right in thinking that the letter 'ä' in the conjugated verb form 'är' is pronounced [e:] even though it is placed before an 'r'?

It's funny that I thought pitch accent was unique to Japanese 🤣

This concept also lies in india i.e. ऋण/भार - this means you should not be in debt of anybody's favour whether it's money, food or either doing some bad to someone else , we have to repay those debts in next life(reborn) . So in order to attain enlightenment we don't want to be in debt of someone's favour Butttt..... In india we people treat guest as god (अतिथि देवो भवः) so we can not send our guest with empty stomach , we will cook even delicious food and feed them over. So the two ideologies clashes but we live with second one cause not everyone is concerned about afterlife, rebirth and enlightenment.

Vad händer när ett ord som har accent2 är oberonat i en mening? Typ “många” som inte är betonat i vanliga fall

Jag är stjärnbock!

The Romanian beggars in Sweden always say ”Hej Hej” instead of ”Hej” 😂

I’m from Sweden and i’m trying to learn to speak Swedish with a Danish accent.

men sluta stirra då D:

I couldn’t make this sound at first but then it became natural and now i just “IIIIIIIJJJJJJJJJJJ”😂

I give up. I'm going back to Norsk bokmal.

I was an exchange student in Sweden Stockholm for a semester and among other courses, I needed to attend Swedish language course. They taught us academic Swedish but not the practical one which the people in the street were using. Though I hold a basic talk but swearing was not included in the syllabus but Swedes swear all the time.

I as a Swede have been attempting for the past year to retrieve my accent after American schooling trying to take it away from me and considering me to have a speech disorder because of it find this very helpful

Thank you for adding IPA it helps a lot ⭐️

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)

Family names as first names - my last name is 'Riley', for some reason it has become a reasonably popular first name...

You have a beautiful singing voice!

I love your videos. And I'm a synth addict too!

This is such an interesting concept. In Chavacano, we have two words for "where" : onde and donde. "Onde" is used to ask for the location of an immovable thing like a house or the hometown of someone whilst "donde" is used to ask for the (temporary) location of something or someone. Eg. Onde el dituyu casa? Where is your house? Donde el dituyu nana? Where is your mother? To ask "Onde el dituyu nana?" can imply that the mother of the person being asked is dead and had already been buried.

Touch scottish Accent 🤣🤣

I loved this video! My dad’s family is Swedish so he visited a lot throughout my youth and brought me back a wooden Dala horse and I inherited his painted Välkommen sign for our front door. Ever since I learned about the dala horses symbolism I have started collecting them. They make me happy and remind me of my heritage

Google TTS seems to love this sound 😆

All the rules make my head hurt. But I know that English is way worse lol. Tack!

In songs, does accent 2 disappear altogether?

I think they say Norwegian is West Norse because it originally was, and that shines through in some elements such as diphthongs, the feminine etc - most of those being emphasized in Nynorsk. However, Bokmål (especially the conservative variation) is pretty much Danish, so East Norse.

As a hockey player. Insulting/Chirping a man in his mother's tongue hits different. It's a very special kind of angry.

Can you even sound more gay?

Stop skipping the fucking videos wtf

This womans accent brought me here. Its was so jarring I thought it might be like a faux news reporter accent kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z51ia8h0r6eWd30.html

I love the Stockholmska i.. As a talare of Swedish som undra språk, Swedish vowel are difficult to differentiate.. Så when I use it for my i's, I feel it makes it cleared what word I'm trying to say.. I know I don't have to do it.. I sound more rikssvenska.. I still use it..

tacksåmycket!!

Hej, at 9:10 you actually sound like a Welsh person (from North or West Wales), speaking English.

How do I know whitch group the verbs belong in?

Ok but what's supine?

Hej Joakim! Jag undervisar också folk i svenska. Ibland söker jag efter användbara bra klipp på KZfaq att tipsa mina deltagare med. Jag gillar ditt anslag, dina tips och hur du är levande och använder mimik och gester mycket. Ett litet aber är att detta är toklångt. Mina deltagare pallar bara 5-6-minutersklipp. Om jag hade fått önska så hade jag också velat att du tonade ner din amerikanska engelska och talade mer brittisk engelska, som vi gör här i Europa. Detta var kanske oombedd feedback men uttryckta i all välmening.// Allt gott!
