And we don't think it's an n with a mark. And swedish verbs are easier. I know spanish verbs are complicated, specially for foreigners. Besides, our verb conjugations are too specific that we usually don't say the personal pronoun. For example. Corro todas las mañanas which means I run every morning.

genders in grammar is very confusing for English speakers, when you learn a new word how do you know if it's common or neuter? (or male/female)
@AcademiaCervena9 жыл бұрын
In Swedish, it depends. In many cases you can look at what the word refers to (e.g. people are common gender) or if it ends in something typical for either gender (e.g. -are and -ing are common gender endings). For a lot of words though, you will simply have to learn its gender along with it!

DuckBoy Although in Swedish, there is no grammatical masculine or feminine gender. The distinction is between _common_ _gender_ and _neuter_. And while they in most cases are impossible to predict, there are several rules to help determine them. As I said above, for example, if a word ends in _-ing_ it's always common gender.

No, I think this is one of those things you just need to memorize, sadly. Perhaps you'll find some sort of "rules" or consistencies, but I am unaware of any such. I'm pretty sure the German system has a few rules, though I'm afraid I forgot what they are. One rule I definitely remember from school though, is that words ending in "chen" are always neuter. Which is why we get the rather awkward situation of the word for boy (Junge) being masculine while the word for girl (Mädchen) is neuter instead of the expected feminine.
@someopinion28464 жыл бұрын
Common gender is a merger of the old (and dialectal) masculine and feminine gender. Which means that the Swedish cognates of German masculine or feminine nouns will be common gender. der = -(e)n die = -(e)n das = -(e)t

Start by learning the most important and common parts of grammar and vocabulary. Make sure you keep learning new words, and that those words are relevant. - Study and practice often and regularly. Use apps like Anki, Memrise and/or Duolingo. - Try to find a Swedish-speaking pen pal or skype partner to practice with.

Few corrections: The share of the Swedish speakers in Finland is officially 5.2%, not 5.5%. If the Åland Islands are exluded, the share is 4.8%. In reality the share is somewhat smaller, because many (most?) bilingual couples in bilingual municipalities register Swedish as the official language of their children - regardless of the actual language of use of the family. That's because Finland is one of the few countries - if not the only one - where speaking (officially) the minority language is in several ways more beneficial than speaking the majority one. There are no more unilingual Swedish language municipalities in continental Finland. All municipalities in the mainland are either unilingually Finnish or bilingual. Most of the official Swedish speakers are fluent in Finnish too, many of them are bilingual and some of them even stronger in Finnish.
