"Winter is coming."

Translation: Vintern kommer.

[LudwigXIV]

Brace yourselves.

I will now try to hear Ned Stark saying "THE winter is coming" in my head so I don't make the same mistake again :)

[kylemac64]

Du vet inte, Jon Snow.

[Zmrzlina]

More like "du vet ingenting, Jon Snow". ;)

[-Jon-Snow-]

Ey!

[Sjodni]

Why vintern, not vinter?

[Blehg]

Seasons in Swedish usually take the definite article, unlike in English.

Våren är här = Spring is here
Jag älskar sommaren = I love summer

[4070milesapart]

So when would one use "vinter" or "sommar" if the definitive form is usually used?

[Arnauti]

'Det är sommar' comes to mind – 'It is summer'.

In a list of seasons for example. For others a native speaker may need to comment.

[onlycookie]

I would say Game of Thrones.

[LaneV88]

No, Star Wars

[JasonDevloo]

"Vintern närmar sig" är översättningen av "winter is coming" från boken Kampen Om Järntronen (översättning av A Game of Thrones).

[milad.yaqo]

Winter never left Sweden anyways haha.

[RumenM]

For House Stark!

Valar Morghulis!

[Elnaz20]

Why not : "Vintern är på väg."

[lostdrewid]

because that's not what we learned? I think Google Translate is playing tricks on you; I just submitted "Vintern kommer" as the proper translation.

[AaronQualtrough]

winter is on the wall?

[RaidedbyVikings]

väg is road, vägg is wall

[Brave.ami]

i lost my smile after this sentence
