My worst word was "sjuksköterska". After a few pronunciation lessons, where we learnt the pronunciation of sju and sk by the following tongue twister:"Sju sjösjukliga sjömän sköttes av sjutton sköna sjuksköterskor." I was able to remember the word. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Yeah, that's definitely a tough one! Speaking of tongue twisters, I was tought the difference between y, u, and ö with this tongue twister: flyg, fluga flugan, flyg! Och den fluga fluga flögt. (Fly, ugly fly, fly! And the ugly fly flew.) Aaaaah, pure poetry. Edited by Sarnek on 31 December 2013 at 11:18am 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Actually it's:
Flyg fula fluga, flyg Och den fula flugan flög. Grammar notes: Flyg - imperative of flyga, to fly fula - inflected adjective form of ful, ugly fluga - the dictionary form, fly flyg - imperative, added for reperition och - and den fula - the ugly flugan - definite form of fluga, the fly flög - past tense of flyga, flew 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

Tack, jeff.
I have a question,though. Why is the adjective "fula"? Shouldn't that form be used for plural nouns only? 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

It's also be used in front of define nouns.
den fula flugan Flugan is the define noun, so you need "fula" and "den". Another example: en stor stol (a large chair) den stora stolen (the large chair) ett stort hus (a large house) det stora huset (the large house) stora hus (large houses) de stora husen (the large houses) Exercises about this Övning 1 Övning 2 Edited by Mareike on 01 January 2014 at 6:49pm 4 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||
