Swedish time prepositions and time expressions

Swedish time prepositions and time expressions

Hej!

This course is for you who has been studying Swedish for a while and has at least an A2+ level. It deals with time prepositions and time expressions in Swedish. The prepositions are divided  into 5 groups, each group related to specific questions, such as:

When? (past tense)

När? (dåtid)

When? (future tense)

När? (framtid)

eg. Jag var i Göteborg för 5 månader sedan.

How long?

Hur länge?

eg. Jag har bott i Stockholm i 4 år. Patrik har inte sett sina föräldrar på 6 månader.

How fast?

Hur snabbt?

eg. Erik springer 5km på 30 min.

How often?

Hur ofta?

eg. Han springer två gånger i veckan. Bussen går 2 gånger om dygnet.

We will also see the difference between sentences like:

Han har läst svenska i 4 månader vs Han har läst svenska på 4 månader, both grammatically correct, but with a completely different meaning.

Also, why we say om året but i månaden?

The time expressions section includes the differences between, e.g.

i sommar vs i somras vs på sommaren vs till sommar

Also, in this chapter you'll learn what is a very big difference between sista and förra? 

And many other interesting thing, such as, when do we use sist, i fjol, i julas etc.

All of this followed by some pronunciation tips that will make you sound like a native Swede!

You'll also have at your disposal additional materials and I'll be more than happy to answer any of your questions or doubts via e-mail.

Looking forward to seeing you in this course!

Varmt välkommen!
