About this listen

This week, we’re continuing the pronunciation theme from last week. This episode is about something that might sound a little boring at first… but I promise it’s super important if you want to sound natural in Swedish. We’re going to talk about the Swedish alphabet and especially about long and short vowels.

Long and short vowels can completely change the meaning of a word. Two words might look very similar, and even sound quite similar, but the vowel length changes everything.
