- Swedish (adjective) = svensk. Han är svensk (He is Swedish).
- Swedish [language] (noun) = svenska. Han talar svenska (He speaks Swedish)
Note that svenska can also be a noun meaning "Swedish woman", but I don't recommend using it in that sense since it's not used much these days and it sounds a bit old-fashioned and will just make things more confusing for you.

It is not usual to capitalize common nouns in Englis unless they start a sentence. Your exercises here require capitals to be used for some reason.

I just can't figure out whether this should be pronounced as "kvinna" with a v as in "eve" of as a w like in "wine" or something in between. Can anyone please help me out here?
