So here you have everything I have related to Swedish. Most stuff I’ve found online (especially books and, of course, websites). The documents on Mega are from the lovely @lovelybluepanda.
I’m probably forgetting some stuff, and I’ll update this when I have new stuff to share. Please, let me know if any of the links doesn’t work!
hello! my first point would be that the verb åkar doesn’t exist, i think you mean åker? anyway, you use the regular form when you wan’t to say that you actually are doing something, or that something actually is happening. like
i am going – jag åker
i am – jag är
i study – jag studerar
you can never use the infinitive directly after the subject! you can use the infinitive after you use the regular form as in
i will go – jag kommer åka
i think about being – jag tänker på att vara
i will swim – jag kommer att simma
i love to sing – jag älskar att sjunga
i hate to complain – jag hatar att klaga
if you use the infinite directly after the subject it becomes the same as
Swedish new year is pretty similar to new year in other places but we do have some traditions. One is watching the skit “Grevinnan och betjänten” (link has Swedish subtitles). Another one is a live broadcasting from Skansen (a big outdoors museum about Sweden in Stockholm) with the most important part being when someone recites the poem “Nyårsklockan” right before midnight. This is a tradition since 1895 (but it obviously wasn’t televised back then, it was on the radio between 1934–1955 and has been televised since 1977). Other than these two we party, shoot fireworks and drink champagne.
