This video is really funny thought is not simple at all

I think the facts in this video are only difficult for non-German people ^^. For example: the thing with the word "val" is in Germen exactly the same. We, too, use the word "Wahl" for choice and election, but for whale we have the word "Wal", but the pronounciation ist the same like "Wahl".

And the thing with the two different articels: in German we have three different ones . So we have no problems to handle this - but we also have to learn which word which article needs.

And at last the words they used in this video have in German really close pronounciations ^^. Swedish is for Germans an easy language to learn.

As French, Italian or Portuguese is easy for people who speak spanish

I recommend you this page to practice your pronunciation:

You just need to type a text in Swedish, select a Swedish speaker and click on Say It and that's it .

I'm reading the news in Swedish using this program to improve my pronunciation skills.

Thanks Al!

Jag har träffat en bojke från Danmark. Danks är liknande Svenska.

Oh, hey that was pretty good, though I think it will sound better if you say:

Jag har träffat en pojke från Danmark. Danska liknar Svenska.

Tack!
