"Nu vilar hon i frid."

Translation: Now she is resting in peace.

[CsabaDaday]

I hope there are some happier examples coming up...

[EleniaT]

I'm pretty sure that this is one of the saddest skills...

[LyckligCyklop]

So many ups and downs

[Jan-Olav]

'Vila i frid!' is often said at burial ceremonies.

[NicolaSvartberg]

V.I.F. instead of R.I.P.?

[Zmrzlina]

Yes, but we don't use the VIF acronym in Swedish.

[datzysve]

Also in italian is "RIP" (Riposa In Pace), from the latin "RIP" (Requiescat In Pacem).

[LyckligCyklop]

rip

[MaranataMan]

That would cause much bemusement among francophones.

[ivan100sic]

Is this what we would use to say that someone has died?

[mamajelli]

What's wrong with She is now resting in peace. ?

[devalanteriel]

Nothing - that's also accepted.

[mamajelli]

My answer was considered incorrect. I reported it as "it should be correct." Tack.

[devalanteriel]

That may have been a bug, then. It's definitely accepted, and I can't find any report from you.

[mamajelli]

Bummer about not finding any reports. I've been reporting that the sound doesn't come on quite often. Words are often missing. Sometimes, the entire "listen and write" section is missing.

[devalanteriel]

That's certainly odd. Usually if Duolingo is having problems with audio playing, many users start asking about it at once, but I've only seen you do it recently. Honestly, that may be a local issue and not a sitewide one - but of course, I can't tell for sure.

As for missing words, do you mean in word tile exercises?

[Mehvish275086]

Why is it vilar hon i frid and not hon vilar i frid

[devalanteriel]

It's the v2 rule - the verb wants to come second.

[Christina982811]

Re: "She is resting in peace." At a funeral service in USA you'd also hear, "Now is she resting in peace. ". Just so you know.

[Smith_Ryan]

In her bedroom, because she's only napping and isn't dead :)

[SheilaMorris]

No, apparently it means she's dead, going by the comments above.

[devalanteriel]

I don't know why somebody downvoted you. If you used this in Swedish for somebody not being dead, people would think you're daft.

[KiwiDressager]

I would guess it is because they replied in earnest to someone who was clearly joking, rather than due to the correctness or otherwise of their statement. ;)

[devalanteriel]

Possibly, though I doubt it was not well meant. Either way, there you have it. :)

[Trilby16]

Now I'm coming up against the lack of Tinycards. Going into territory where my vocabulary is lacking, getting every sentence wrong-- not a good way to learn, at least for me.

[Stotty6]

Nu är hon en före detta papegoja.
