"Does the cake taste good?"

Translation: Smakar tårtan gott?

[A_Joao_Elias]

How is the words gott/god/goda flexed here in this sentence? I don't get it.

I wrote something about this here: https://www.duolingo.com/comment/6219094

[Seraph259]

Tack Arnauti, en god förklaring!

[yan_man23]

Shouldn't it be "bra" instead of "god"?

[devalanteriel]

You can use either here. In Swedish, you can basically say either "does it taste good?" or "does it taste tasty?" :)

[devalanteriel]

Oh! Oops. Yes, bra is arguably better. But god can refer to a quality as well as a taste, and while it's usually applied to people, it's not strictly wrong to use for things like explanations. It's quite common in e.g. proverbs to use like this.

[yan_man23]

Oh, I was referring to "en god forklaring" .

[steverandall7]

So why is it gott and not god? I thought târt is an -en word.

[devalanteriel]

It is, but you need the adverb form here.

[Salva265354]

Why... oh .. why.... "Smakar tårtan bra" is not accepted... it should be :-)

Why gott not god
