"Ett litet rött äpple."

Translation: A small red apple.

[CadklZ]

Almost sounds like 'A little tired apple'

[travellbugg]

What's the difference then between liten/lilla and små?

[deactivated user]

it says in the notes under, but små is the plural form of liten/lilla. ie de små äpplena

[PaulGratrex]

I might have asked this elsewhere at some point, but does Swedish have a specific order for adjectives? There's a reasonably famous quote about how, in English, adjectives:

"...absolutely have to be in this order: opinion-size-age-shape-colour-origin-material-purpose Noun. So you can have a lovely little old rectangular green French silver whittling knife. But if you mess with that order in the slightest you’ll sound like a maniac." - Mark Forsyth

[Rasla143]

I think they have the same but I'm not sure I have seen many Swedish sentences with that similar order

[tjolahoppsansaa]

I heard "ett lite trött äpple" :)

[Mr.X952790]

"Ett litet trött apple" was accepted here? Poor tired apple ;)

[DaveCarlile]

Yep, still is. It even sounds like that's what's being said. Seems like an error.

[mollydot]

It was accepted for me too. Maybe because it's only wrong by one letter?

[andrewlilja]

If this was going be in the definite form, would it be "Den små röda äpplet?"

[Arnauti]

Det lilla röda äpplet.

[DritanArif]

So lille, litet, lilla, små? Examples where we use this please?

[smaggieh]

Hm, how would you know that it is "one little red apple" rather than "a little red apple"?

[Lundgren8]

You don’t, it could be either. Both are accepted in the course.

[bigswedeej]

So it is en liten... or ett litet... , But lille is used for both en and ett words?

[RowenaJane]

Why is it rott and not rottet? (sorry can't do accents here)
