"Advokaten ringer igen."

Translation: The lawyer calls again.

[Sjodni]

Could this sentence be used for the phrase, "the lawyer is calling again?" Thanks.

[Lundgren8]

Yes. There is no difference between the present simple and present continuous in Swedish.

[Sjodni]

Got it, thanks!!!

I heard advokaten ringer ren .... I should lay off max volume headphones

[LingoLaura]

you're not too far off... the last R in ringer is really close to the beginning of igen, which sounds like the "-en" in "ren" ... (:

[Gnurfel]

Well, if a reindeer wants to sue Santa for better wages it'll need a good lawyer :))

[deactivated user]

Does this specifically mean a phone call, or can it be used to call out to someone?

[JoakimEk]

It can not be ~shouts. Either he is on the phone, or (less likely) he is pounding a church bell (or similar).

[KyleFulton3]

So why isn't "the lawyer is phoning again" a correct answer?

[LizMoulder]

I put this too. This means the same as calling in UK English

[jahwu]

I had the same problem understanding this.. the normal version sounds like 'ren', and when you play it slow it sounds like 'en'

[BWolfBurak]

She reads igen as /ijan/, why she read e as "a"?

[tatianedallagnol]

Could it be translated as "the lawyer calls no one"?
