WHO THIS COURSE IS FOR

This course is suitable for anyone who is learning Swedish, but feels unsure of general grammar terms.

It can be daunting to pick up a Swedish course book, or attend Swedish language classes, if you don't know what imperative, indefinite and subordinate conjunctions mean.

Maybe you don't know what these are in Swedish, or maybe you don't even know what they are in English, or any other language!

Language course books and materials online are often filled with 'grammar jargon', and if you haven't studied a foreign language before (or at least not as an adult), you may feel that the whole language learning prospect is too difficult.

The course is particularly useful if your first language is English, and you haven't studied much (if any) grammar before. Swedish learners with other first languages may also find it useful, but the majority of the comparisons in the course is between English and Swedish.

This course is perfect for grammarphobes and will explain in simple terms all you need to know about grammar, so you can get on with your Swedish learning!

WHY THIS COURSE IS IMPORTANT

Grammar is not just something academic and boring that you need to study for the sake of it. Grammar is actually the key to how a whole language is built up!

Think of it as a manual that unlocks the structure of a language. And once you understand how it works, it gives you the freedom to express yourself effectively, so that other people understand you.

Sometimes when people start learning a second language, especially if they haven't studied another language before, it's easy to think that it's just a case of translation. That you swap each word for the target language word, and that's how you speak that language.

But that's assuming that all languages have the same grammar as your mother tongue. And this is not the case.

All languages have different grammar rules, and your job is to not only learn new words, but also learn how to use these words correctly and how to put them together.

HOW THIS COURSE IS DIFFERENT

This course doesn't focus on vocabulary. Instead it focuses on getting you to understand the underlying principles of Swedish grammar, so you can apply them more effectively when you learn new words elsewhere.

The course goes through all the 9 grammatical categories and explains what they are, how they work and what you should look out for. It also teaches you the basic principles of Swedish word order.
