"We eat food."

Translation: Vi äter mat.

[RaniOfTheRain]

Hint: If you have trouble remembering food(mat) like I did, at parties, they place food on mats

[Lundgren8]

It’s also etymologically the same word as meat.

[ZL321]

Oo, that's interesting.

[dbf12]

Nice idea!

[Gabis1207]

As opposed to...?

[Arnauti]

Candy, perhaps?

[silkssilk]

candy is food

[fabijankoscak]

Shouldn't mat be written with an ö because the it pronounces it like mot, möt

[Arnauti]

I definitely don't think it's pronounced like möt. There is a real word möt in Swedish which you can hear here, listen and compare.
You'll get better at hearing the sounds of the language correctly with practice.

[fabijankoscak]

Yeah, i get it now, thanks!

[Jethrou]

Do you say "vi äter" or more like "viäter" because it sounded like it should be combined when it is said in a sentence.

[Zmrzlina]

Well, yes, since there is no spacebar in speech.

[XeroClap]

Vi=we also vi=wine why?

[Zmrzlina]

No, wine is "vin" (ett-word).

[Kornelija750954]

Are there different endings for verbs? As in for i, he, she, it, we...?

[Taldust]

As far as I know: No, it does not change with the person. But I'm just a beginner myself.

[silkssilk]

woah 1739 days! you arent a beginner anymore!

[OwainLlyfr]

The current speech synthesis is completely off target for the first word here. It pronounces "vi" like "veh", which is the way Swedes pronounce the letter 'v'.

[SamuraiOwl]

What else would we eat?????

[silkssilk]

i dont
