37. Long and Short Vowels Part 2
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.Instagram videos:AOUÅ: https://www.instagram.com/p/DKOr_Lks-UT/EIYÄÖ: https://www.instagram.com/p/DKrKkS2MohG/You can download the transcript, vocabulary list, and exercises on Patreon.https://www.patreon.com/slowswedish/membershipBrowse all episodes here: https://slowswedish.com/Happy learning! 💛

36. How to Pronounce R-Combinations in Swedish
This week’s episode is a masterclass in pronunciation! And it’s one of my favorite topics to teach. We are going to dive into the unique R-combinations in the Swedish language!When the letter R comes before certain consonants, the sound changes completely (in most parts of the country). These are called retroflex sounds.You can download the transcript, vocabulary list, and exercises on Patreon.https://www.patreon.com/slowswedish/membershipBrowse all episodes here: https://slowswedish.com/Happy learning! 💛
