"The pink trousers are his."

Translation: De rosa byxorna är hans.

[marcocaramori]

For anyone else wondering about that 'De':

When an adjective or numeral is used in front of a noun with the definite article, an additional definite article is placed before the adjective(s). This additional definite article is det for neuter nouns, den for common nouns, and de for plural nouns, e.g. den nya flaskan (the new bottle), det nya brevet (the new letter), de fem flaskorna (the five bottles).

Learning Swedish is a constant reminder that I don't know anything about English grammar after speaking it for almost 40 years. I have thoughts of "The pink the pants are his" swirling in my head as I read the top comment.

Can one use honom here?

[4oYBIxtO]

No. That would be ”The pink trousers are him”

[Zmbac]

Is it wrong if we say just rosa byxorna ar hans (without de)?

[Yama842603]

Why can't I use sin or sitt here?
