For people who wonders why this has a bunch of thumbs up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxxajLWwzqY
You use det if you refer to an ett-word and den if you refer to an en-word, but if the gender is unknown, you usually use det.
when you say "when the gender is unknown", when would this be the case?
Perhaps something abstract like a concept or an earlier conversation or something which isn’t a clear noun with a clear gender.
In this sentence, according to this, it should be "Jag älskar det" then, shouldnt it? But the answer uses "den".
What differnece is there with "dig" and "er", is "dig" you, and "er" you plural?
Yes exactly :) . By the way you can use Duolingo on your computer and you'll see that each lesson has entire pages of tips. It's not in the app though...
Jag har fått den här känslan på sommardagen när dig har född (am I even close lol)
I don't know what you're quoting, but "dig har född" does not sound grammatically correct. If you could give me the original English I could give you a more accurate translation. (Native speaker here.)
Was supposed to be "du föddes" , "you were born", part of the lyrics of the song "I love it" by the coincidentally (or maybe not, I know the course writers here are sneaky) swedish group Icona Pop
Har fått is probably wrong too, here's the original anyway "I've got this feeling on the summer day when you were born..." Edit: lol I even got the original lyrics wrong, it's "when you were gone" facepalm
Loving doesn't exist, see, those are called stative verbs and don't really have a continuous tense. Same as hope, own, etc. You don't say "I'm loving english" unless you mean it like a real action, e.g. making love to english (?) So yeah.
Now, what you mean is the slang. I have no idea whether the swedish have a slang for that.
Yes. However, only if you're specifically referring to the idea as a noun. If you're referring to the contents of the idea (which you most likely would) you would say "Jag älskar det!" for the reason Lundgren8 has already covered.
Is it normal how she pronounces the "det"? It seems quite high-pitched and forceful to me
