"Jag fyller flaskan med vatten."

Translation: I am filling the bottle with water.

[AndrewR231085]

Could "flaskan" also mean "the flask" ?

[Arnauti]

a flask is normally en termos (the one that keeps your coffee warm), en plunta (small flask which usually contains alcohol), or en kolv (the flask you use in chemistry)

[KasparJohannes]

Sure, but is it actually wrong?

[AndrewR231085]

Understood. Tack! :)

I put 'I fill the bottle of water'.......it was denied. I guess though I often say 'of' perhaps in very correct English it should be 'with'...?

[AlexTiefling]

Yes - a bottle containing water is a bottle of water; when you're filling it, the water is the indirect object of the verb, and uses 'with'.

[KeesKiwi]

Could this also mean "I am filling MY bottle with water"?

[EwaDuVarra]

That would be min flaska med vatten

MED to me was always pronounced ME+YED and yet I slowed the audio down and listened so carefully and heard ME+AH. Why?
