Think of a mixture of the "a" in 'around' and the "o" in 'or', and you get something close. And then add the 'd' sound in front of it, and you have something close to "då".
It wont let me get it right! I can speak Swedish and it still says its wrong.
I pronounce it as i hear the recording say it but it constantly tells me I'm wrong. Can anybody explain the pronounciation better to me?
Luckily for you, the word for thank you and please is the same in Swedish! Tack så mycket always means thank you very much, but tack can mean either thank you or please. If you need to know the meaning of tack in a sentence, use context to figure it out.
if "hej då" is equivalent to the English "see you then", is there a direct translation for just goodbye?
Not really. "Hej då" (or "hejdå", both are used) is pretty much equivalent to "goodbye".
It keeps saying I pronounce 'då' incorrect but I happen to know for sure I'm saying it correctly. Just like så.. and that, it says, is correct.. #confused #frustrated
Is 'och' then 'and' both acceptable in iterary and in conjunctive situations (as in English)? For example, could I say 'Jag har ett brev och jag är en man'?
I always thought that "hej hej" is bye. Our teacher told us so...and according to her, hej då is hello...
hej då is always 'bye', hej hej can be used for both 'hello' and 'bye' depending on context.
It's entirely appropriate for use in any situation when you want to say "Thank you and goodbye!".
I don't understand why she doesn't say "och" in the voice sentence. It always confuses me.
Tah Koh Hay Doh!
The O is definitely in there. Maybe you are expecting to hear the CH ? You won't hear that when it's used in sentences. listen to example
How did I get it wrong? Tack is "thanks", but I did put that. It even said I was correct in the translatio . It said I was wrong, and instead its supposed to be "thank -you"
