Vi ska bli baklaterna för att vi har en kulturkorspondtionssikt. Vi ska gå till en annan. Nu ska vi gå till en annan. Vad är det första vi har sett? Så du säger att "hej, har ni något ledigt bort?" Great. Så bort, jag har redanit. Det är vad som är för table. Vi har lärt oss när vi är lärningssmirgåsbort. Ja. Precis. Så du har något som är table. Vad är det något ledigt bort? Så vad är något min? Så det normala är någon, men i den här parisettant är det "a", så är det en fri table. Okej, skulle jag bara säga att "har ni ett bort?" Nej, för jag vill vara lite mer som du vill vara en fisikl-table, som du vill vara ett table. Okej, en förnöshjärrstor. Så jag vill gå till en förnöshjärrstor, jag vill inte säga "att det är en restaurant". Okej, "har ni något ledigt bort?" Yes. Okej, så vad är det vi ska säga i en respons? Tvär är det fullt, men vi har ett bort ledigt om ett halvtimme. Okej, så. Hav. Timmer är det en halvtimme? Yes. Great. Och jag är fyrt, men jag är något med en restaurant som är fyrt i den moment. Ja, exakt. Så kan du gå till det i en del. Så, du har röknat till vare? Jag tror att det är en fornöshjärr, eller något sådant. Ja, så är det en fri-fri, så jag säger att det är en fornöshjärr, och det är full. Men, men är det, vi har ett halvtimme, fri-fri-fri-in-harvtimme. Ja, men vi har ett bort ledigt, vi har ett halvtimme, fri-om-in-harvtimme, in-harvtimme. Så, kommer vi bästa till tjuver, vi börjar till tjuver, så det är en halvtimme, det är inte korrekt. Exakt. Det är en riktigt väljad. Så, unfortunately, is it full, but we have a table-free-in-half-in-hour. Yes. Och en next part? Okej, är det något med barn? Du vill du veta i barn? Ja, och du vill du rekonaise det? Vill? Vill, ja, så du vill du. Ja, en ni är plural form av du? Ja. Och en venta är tillbaka, jag vet inte. Ja, exakt. Så, vad säger jag, venta? Ja, för det är presentent, men i den här senten vi har två verbs, vill ni vänta. Så venta har tillbaka i en infinitiv form. Okej, det gör ett sätt. Och det är att jag är nu. Ja, hoppade. Ja, exakt. Och då vill jag säga vill ni ha något att rika? Så vi har vill ni ha något att rika här. Och så har vi ett hart ni något ledigt bort. Är det en av de equäven av det här, det är en av det här, och det är en av det. Så, har du gått en av de fri-table och du vill ha något att rika? Är det något som det är? Ja, och du vill ju inte ha något att rika här. Så Norgot kan vi ha en par ofta. Okej, vill ni ha något att rika? Vilka är det något att rika? Vilka är något att rika? Ja. Så du är ordard, och jag är ordard ett klass vid vinn. En klass av white wine. Och jag vill ha ett klass röttvin, tack. Så du är ett klass av red wine. Exakt. Så vi har vittvin och röttvin, ja? Ja, en en fan, då är det ett av det att rika är ett för en av det att rika. En vinn är ett vittorätt, så ett tilländ vittorätt. Okej, så en vinn, för att vi kan gå till en envård och se vad den röttvin är. Ja, så, if du vill ha en av det för exempel, är en bil. Så det är en vittbil och en rödbil. Så, då är det en vitt tilländ för späling. Ja, och jag vill ha en av det här. Yeah, let's have a white wine or a glass of white wine and a white car again. So white wine is 'vít víne' and a car is 'vít bill'. So it's a longer eye. Is that because there's only one 't'? Exactly. So in wine 'vít' is 'vítútíse', 'cá 1t'. Okay. And so what happened with the red? So here we have 'r-a-t-t' - red-víne. But when we talk about a car, we say 'red-bil'. So it's 'r-a-d'. Okay. And the 'r' that you're seeing there is 'o' with two dots above. Yes. Okay. So 'n-red-bil'. Does this happen with all adjectives? Yes. So when we learn an adjective, we need to learn the 'et' form and the 'n' form of an adjective. Yeah. And the simple way to remember it, if you have a nine with that is it, you always put that 't' on the end of the adjective as well. Okay. And that's going to sometimes change the vowel sound depending on what the vowel sound is. Yes. Excellent. Okay. So you're having a glass of red wine. I'm having a glass of white wine. And then you added something else in and I think this is something that we've heard before. Can we foresee a 'pô-minin'? So can we see the menu? Yes. Maybe we see the menu or something like that. Yes. So here we have a, I guess, a French word again. And you say 'ya' is 'jette hungry'. I am very hungry, so I'm putting 'jette' in the front there. 'ya' is 'jette hungry'. Yeah. Then Emma, our witcher, comes back. And it is 'o att bestella'. So does this mean are you ready to order? Yes. So 'redo' means ready? Exactly. It seems a very strange word to be ready. I don't know why. I didn't expect it to sound like the English. No. I know it's, I guess it comes from English and it really doesn't sound Swedish at all but that's what the way we would say it. Okay. And 'bestella' is something we've seen already in our previous lessons. So are you ready to order? Yes. However, I said that I think we need a little more time, is that correct? Yes, we need a little more time. We behave so we need a little more time. Yes. And I think the reason I know that line is because it's from a song, I kind of remember what song but I think it was a love song and it was something like 'vbehavour' lead to me or 'tid'. We need a little more time together or something like that. I don't know. Okay. I'm just thinking what song that can be. Knowing you is probably a Swedish version of the abba. Could that be right? I think it may be a medieval tradition song. Oh, okay. But I'm not sure. Oh, wait a minute. We behave only to 'tid' for 'tus' not. We need a little time for silence or something like that. That's a really fredic song. So. I think I have some a song back in my head now. I'm not going to sing but I think I know what you want to know. Okay. But let's continue on with our conversation. So I wasn't sure what I wanted to order so I say, 'What recommender du har ni no go on Svensk specialitet?' Okay. So the first part of that is very similar to what we would expect in English. So what recommend you? What do you recommend? And then you said 'har ni no go on Svensk specialitet'. Right. Can I guess what's happening here? This no go on. It looks very like no go but with the word 'specialitet' be an N word. Exactly. So no go on change. So we either have no go on, or no go on depending on if it's N or N. So this is singular here. 'har ni no go on Svensk specialitet'. The equivalent of singing in English. Do you have any Swedish speciality to suggest in that sense? Yes. And if we would talk about an implural, no go on would change to no go. Oh right, no go on. Well, we'll maybe see that at some point. It works the same way here as 'har ni no go on slated port'. Yeah, it's right. So do you have any spare table? I think in English we would tend to say do you have any spare tables or do you have any free tables? But I'm guessing then in Swedish it makes more sense to make that singular. Do you have any spare table? Because ultimately if you're there with your family or your friends then the chances are you're just looking for one table as I suppose to multiple tables. Yes. So if you said an implural in Swedish it would just sound like you were after many many tables. Excellent. So what were the Swedish specialities that Emma suggested? So the first one is 'sjötbullar me potatis mors, lingon silt og grads sors' and Emma says they are jättegoda'. Right, so this is all together. This is the whole. Holdish, yeah. Holdish, yes. So we've got meatballs, putatis mors, is that like mashed potato? Yes. Atmosa, the verb 'atmosa' just means to smash something to mash something together. Okay, what does. is there a word like that that means to cuddle? Gusa. Gusa, okay, I don't know where that's coming from. Okay, so meatballs with mashed up potatoes, lingon silt, is that lingonberry jam? Yes, so we talked about silt some lessons ago and then we have a new one, 'grädsors'. Well, 'gräd' was that cream? Yes, good. So 'gräd' was our vanvuklad. So 'grädsors' cream sauce? Yes, exactly. And you have to have all this to make a Swedish meatball. Yes. Now, she said that, and this dish, the shattpullena, is jättegoda. What's happening with this goda? Okay, so because we're talking about meatballs, which is plural because believe me, we don't want one meatball. Then it's a plural form and we need to have an 'a' on the end. So if we talk about a meatball and shattbullena, I would say 'are jättegoda'. Okay, but it's the shattpullena. 'are jättegoda'. Okay, now I see that they're that sending in any. I don't really want to go here because I think it's a complex question or at least a complex answer, but that's the plural form, the meatballs, yeah? Yes. And I think we're getting into this now and I know I always say Swedish is really, I think Swedish is really easy, but the in plural forms, that is what gets difficult with Swedish and adjectives. So as soon as you manage those, you're going to be fine. Okay, okay. Let's leave it at that for the explanation right now and move on to the other dish because Emma mentioned that Laksen, which is the salmon, isn't it? Yeah, so we have salmon and we have 'deel stuvaad potortes'. So something to do with 'dill'. Are they baked potatoes with 'dill' or something like that? No, so 'stuvaad' is something like 'creamed potatoes'. I would say. And obviously we have 'dill' in everything in Sweden. So it's just 'creamed potatoes' and then you have 'dill' in it and it's a very kind of traditional popular dish. So she said that they are popular? Yeah. Okay, I said, and I seem to remember this phrase from something before because I think I learned 'jart to kyr om språk', I like languages, but here I said 'jart to kyr om fisk', I like fisk, so I am going to have the salmon, 'javillhart' 'laksen' and the 'laksen' there has the 'jjenn' on the end because it's the salmon, correct? Yes, exactly. If I was going to have the meatballs, would I have said 'javillhart' 'sjöt puller' now? Exactly, exactly because it's a plural form. Of course, and that's exactly just what you said. And then, let's look at the first bit. Yeah, so 'jart etter inte fisk' or 'skaljur'? So I don't eat fish or what are 'skaljur'? So it's shellfish. Okay, 'skaljur' because 'jur' is animal, isn't it? Yeah, and 'skal' is shell. So shell animals in Swedish, yeah? Yeah, Swedish when you straight translate, it's often so ugly and weird, it's very simple. This strange thing is when I, first so you seeing that I thought it was 'I don't eat fish or animals, I thought you were seeing you were a vegetarian.' You said you were going to have the meatballs, which I don't know. Okay. Vegetarian meatballs perhaps. So no, it's shellfish because I say, you have a lot of sh*t bull on us. I want the meatballs. Can you afford them? Uhtan grad sauce. Right. Again, from my Swedish songs, Uhtan day, meat sleeve, or Vida, without you, my life goes on. Uhtan is without, isn't it? Yeah, so without cream sauce. And I explainly afterwards that I am yog-er-alargisk mot lactose. So you've got lactose in tolerance? Yeah. So that's, I mean, because otherwise I would want cream sauce because that's the best. Okay. So that was okay as far as the waitress was concerned. Mm-hmm. And she also has norgon forret. So norgon is anything but what's this forret? Soret means dish. So she just asks if we want a starter and fur means pre. Okay. So pre-dish, any pre-dish, basically any starters? Yes. Because we have furret. And then we have huvudret, which is the main course. Is that like head dish? Head dish, yeah. So when huvud means head, but it's also mean main. So you would see huvud on quite a lot of other ways. I'm thinking mainly the Swedish word for capital, for example, is huvudstart. Yeah, I remember that from our Stockholm culture here, Nan. Excellent. Okay. And we don't want a starter. So we just order the main dishes. And then when Emma brings them, Harfin, her wittest brings them, she wishes as a tasty meal, doesn't she? Yes. And we say this all the time in Swedish. So it's a little bit like bon appetit or something like that. And it's smarkly malt-tid. So smarkly, smarkly malt-tid. Can you see it again? Smarkly malt-tid. Smarkly malt-tid. So it's like a double bones on that malt-tid. Yeah. Right. Okay, well, we're going to probably eating our meal. We're going to take a short break and then we'll be back after the meal for the remainder of the conversation.

[Music] How were your meatballs, Hannah, did you enjoy them? Oh, that was a great meal. And likewise the laxin of our yet-to-goat. Was that right? Yet-to-goat. Yeah, we're good. Okay. So we've had our meal and then the wheat just comes back and asks us, she uses this smark again. So can you talk us through this part? So smakade, the bra and at smakade, the verb is taste, too taste. So it's just a past tense of, did it taste good? Okay. So, yeah, did it taste good? Smakade, the bra. How was your meal? I guess we would see in English or something like that? Yeah. And you say? Yeah, it was really good. And then the witch just goes on and says something else. So what did she ask next? So she said, not on that? No, I'm reading our transcript here as we're going through this. But we learned this word as no got, but no you said it's not. So just to make it a little bit more complicated, as you know by now, Swedish people can speak quite quickly sometimes. So I would say that we have used no got or no gone. And that is mainly because this is a waitress who's quite polite. So she pronounces everything correctly. When we speak quickly to each other and sometimes waitress as well, they would probably say not or none. Right. So we can kind of run the geo out of there and just say not unnit or none. So what was the sentence that you asked earlier? Harning, no, and Svensk, specialitate. Yeah, exactly. Right. Good. Okay. So not unnit, anything else? The unnit there is the else part? Yeah. Good. And then she asks, "kaffe" or "dissar". Right. So a very strange sounding word there. Exx. So coffee or dessert? Exactly. And do you remember I said earlier about starter and main course? We can also use instead of dessert, we can say "efteret". "Efteret"? It's funny. When you say that, I imagine to be eating a dark mint chocolate when you're talking about "efteret". Hmm. I'll not say anymore, but I'll think of that. If I'm thinking if I would like a dessert, then maybe I would like something chocolate and minty. Okay. But I order two coffees, two "kaffe" tack, ok, and "klad kaka". Remind us what the "klad kaka" is. Yeah, so I do, and when we ordered before at "a cafe", we forgot about "klad kaka", which is a very famous Swedish cake. "Ath klada" in the verb is just means to be messy, to do something like something gooey. Okay. So a gooey cake? Yes. It's a chocolate cake and preferably it should be almost runny in the middle. It's very nice. That sounds good. And then I ask something specifically about the cake, what do I say? "Ade nötter i kaken". So I think I'm saying, are there nuts in the cake? Yes, that's what you say. And it's really important because I'm a largisk nutter. So I'm allergic to nuts. Mut. What does "mut" literally mean? Against. Okay, you said earlier, jagarr, "a largisk mut laktos". So this "mut" is against. I'm literally allergic against nuts, yeah? Yes. Okay. However, we're lucky. We're lucky because the "klad kaka" does not have any nuts. No. So you can have a nice "efteret". Excellent. And then you ask, after I guess you've "klad kaka", can we for "nottan"? So can we have the bill, please? Is that the "nottan"? Yes, she is. And remember Swedish people are not that polite. So it's fine to not say, "a polite word like please". Okay. Do you remember that when we talked about it? If you said "snella", it sounds almost like you're baking somebody. "Kennar for nottan, "snella". You don't say "snella". Okay, can we for "nottan"? "nottan". And the way it says, "huelklot in komerstraks". So "huelklot" we've seen before, it means of course, or certainly, "den komerstraks". Straks? Is in a minute. Okay. Again, that doesn't really look like a Swedish word. No, I know. And it's one of the few Swedish words with an "x" in. It's not many of them. And yet it's quite, I would imagine a fairly regularly used word. Yeah. Straight. Okay. And then we have our famous question. "Kurt" or "contanter". So is it "kasha kart" or "kard" or "kasha" in this case? And I say "kurt" is "peam by card". And then what is the way to see here? Because it's a little complicated this part. "Della niponottan". What's happening here? So she just asked if you're splitting the bill? Okay. Which I would say is quite very common in Sweden that people split the bill. Okay. So "della niponottan". So are you sharing on the bill as it were "ponottan"? And I then say "ya butirdai". So what does butird mean? Well thank you very much Mark, because you are saying that you're treating me. Ah, okay. So I'm treating you. So "bjuda" is a quite strange verb because it means that you treat or you invite somebody so if I would say that we are not going to be able to do that. or having a beer you and me mark, I would say, "Oh, you're beautiful, Puneal. "The beer's on me, but if I would invite you to a party, "I would say that you're beautiful, professed. "If I would like, ask you to dance, "then we would say that you're beautiful, up there." - Is beautiful, is something like to bid? Is it linked to the word bid in English? - Oh yeah, I think so, because if you go, if you bid at an auction in Swedish, you'll be there as well. - Okay, well, there must be a link in there somewhere. Okay, so you say, "Taxa Vika, thank you very much." And then would I be right and seeing that, "Yeah, beurre de dé, Néstagong, yeah, beurre de dé, Néstagong, "I am inviting you next time, I'll be for you next time." - Yes, exactly, I get it next time. - Okay, and the witcher then says, "Taxa Vika," and then she says something that I don't really understand. Can you explain this? - So if you go to Sweden, you're gonna see this everywhere in both shops and restaurants. It can often be a little sign saying that, and is velkomna order, which means welcome back. - Right, so there's nothing to do with eating? - No. - Right, order there is back. So it's like, don't be a stranger, come back and visit again soon. - Yes, and what that is with an o-mark, not an "e" - Not an "e" - If it was "e" to dot over it, then it would be about eating. - Okay, sounds good. Right, what we're gonna do now is listen to the conversation again, because now that we've gone through it, hopefully it makes more sense. It's been quite a challenging episode this, and we've still got some more for you. So after the conversation, we'll be back with Emma for our cooture her nun. So let's listen again to the conversation. - Hey, hernny no got led it board. - Tuvair, are you full? But we've already been reading for half a hour. Will you wait in the bar? - Yeah, I'm full. - Will you have anything to drink? - A glass of wine, thank you. - And I want a glass of wine, thank you. Can we see you at the wine? - I'm so hungry. - Are you ready to order? - No, we need a little bit more time. - What do you recommend? Have you ever had a Swedish specialty? - The bowls with potato smooth, lingon silt and green sauce are really good. And the milk with the most delicious potato is popular. - I think they're fish. I want milk. - I'm not eating fish or chicken. I want the green bowls. Can I get them without green sauce? - I'm allergic to lactose. - That's good, anyone else is ready? - No, thank you. - Smoked milk. - Thank you. - Thanks a lot. - Smoked milk is good? - Yes, it was really good. - What's the difference? - Two coffee, thank you. And a glass of cocoa. - Is it better in cocoa? - I'm allergic to cocoa. - No, it's not. - Can we get some? - Of course, it will be. - Short or content? - Short. - Share it on something. - No, I'll offer you. - Oh, thank you so much. I'll take care of you next time. - Thank you so much. Welcome, mate. - It's really good. - Yes, and now Emma is going to tell us about how you're going to spend your time which is a traditional Swedish food. - That sounds like the perfect topic for this episode over to you, Emma. - Hey, Mark and Anna. Today, I want to tell you about whose man's cost, which basically means homemade everyday food that is enjoyed in Sweden by money and is what most Swedes picture when they think of Swedish foods. Traditionally, Swedish whose man's cost is made up of simple but filling meals consisting of food and drink made with ingredients from all over Sweden that is either in season or easy to store. Today, however, the whose man's cost has evolved a bit and not only Swedish ingredients are used to make up these everyday meals. What do I mean by whose man's cost? Picture meatballs, jettbullar, with mashed potatoes, potatoes, mousse, which is often served with brown sauce, brunso sauce, and lingonberry jam or lingon silt and a glass of milk to drink with it. Another example of a traditional Swedish food is Falukorv, which is a type of sausage that comes from the city of Falun. The sausage is typically curved and comes covered in a red plastic that is peeled off when you want to cook it. The sausage can be prepared in different ways, either in the oven or in a pan. It is often served with potatoes, mousse, that we heard earlier or pasta, that's just pasta in Swedish and a lot of people enjoy putting ketchup or mustard on it. Another example of whose man's cost is to eat pea soup or achsapa with pancakes or pan-koko. This is quite a common food to eat on Thursdays, and I remember back in school, we all looked forward to the Thursdays when achsapa, mapan-koko, was served. The pea soup is often made with yellow peas and has pieces of pork in it, while the pancakes are the Swedish kind, which are thin, almost crepe-like, and often served with whipped cream and jam. The reason we eat this on Thursdays stems from medieval times when people ate meat on Thursdays, but not on Fridays. Pancakes as the sird was added on later and I'm quite glad it was. So if you decide to visit Sweden, make sure you try some whose man's cost while you are there. And if you're not lucky enough to go to Sweden anytime soon, you can enjoy something very close to whose man's cost if you visit the food court in your closest IKEA store. So has all this made you hungry? Any hungry? If that's the case, I wish you a smartly-multed or to bulk out to Mark Ohanna is the deal.
