"It is my spot!"

Translation: Det är min plats!

[Metlieb]

Yes, Sheldon, we know.

Det är min plats! Jag sitter här alltid!

[maryrosemary]

How do you say Is this spot/seat free/available/taken?

Would it be: Är det här plats fri/intagit?

[gubatpark]

I usually hear them use "Är det här ledigt?" (while pointing to the chair)

[maryrosemary]

Thanks! :D

[SereneAvatar]

You could say either Är den här platsen ledig? meaning "Is this spot free/available?", or Är den här platsen upptagen? meaning "Is this spot/seat taken?".

[yhnqk]

how would we make the possessive form of plats? e.g. Min plats(es?) färg

[Moria80496]

Maybe, 'färgen på min plats'? Actually, the possessive form is 'plats'

[Kyrstellaine]

Does "Det är mitt plats" work? If not, can you please explain why?

[SereneAvatar]

No, because "plats" is an en-word so it should be "min plats". Unless you mean "palats" meaning "palace/castle" in which case it would be "mitt palats"… ;)

[JorgeHarrisonn]

If "plats" is a en-word, why can't I say "den är min plats"?

[Kerstin482199]

"It" could also be "this". THIS is my spot. And "this" is "det". DET är min plats. In this case it does not matter whether plats is an en-word or an ett-word.
