Ok Alice, so do you want my next lesson to be how you would tell your husband off when he is waaaaaayyyyyyy wrong? I think that is also a very useful thing to know. Just give me a couple of days to think of the best way of phrasing that.
Malin, I love you! Someday, I would like to come to Sweden and say, "Var ligger pärlaffären?" My Google Translate did not give me that phrase. See, what would I do without you?! I would be beadless in Sweden. That would be a tragedy! Although, like Alice, my husband would be fine if I didn't find another bead shop!! p.s. I like that you put the spelling on the screen.
Hilary, my godness, I just had to check what google translate said. Really, I'll have to get back on that. Basically I could just say: DO NOT TRUST GOOGLE TRANSLATE. Their suggestion doesn't make any sense at all. It goes something like: "was the grain shop".
Malin, I love these lessons so much!! I just watched you twice in a row and practiced my open and closed a's. Quite close to German pronunciation with their umlaut. Now, what I want to know is how to pronounce an a with a wee circle over the top! I love the spellings on the video as well - it helps so much to see it written down. Thanks! One day helen and I will come to Sweden and we'll all go to the paerlaffaeren together (dunno how to type umlauts!).
thanks for your lessons, i really enjoy them ..i'm laughing a little about the google translations to swedish..it leaves me guessing alot of the time..an aquaintance's parents(swedish) are spending a year traveling the USA..i would love to know what she is writing on her blog but google doesn't help much.

Yes, that is a most useful phrase, though my husband would probably disagree.
