"Inget barn är fult."

Translation: No child is ugly.

[agnoe]

Oh boy, wait till you see my 5th grade school pictures.

[KeatonPotatoed]

Yeah, Its definitely duo's naivety speaking here

[KamranWali]

I think my 5th grade picture can beat your 5th grade picture in fult competition.

[YanVysotsk]

I see a challenger here! Mine have won many prizes in the fult competition!

[Ollyfer]

You both think that you could beat my 5th-grade school pictures? That's cute...

[konnilee]

Funny how the first example on wiktionary is:

"Det var den fulaste unge jag någonsin sett."

"That's the ugliest kid I've ever seen."

[Helmut83]

Ruthless.

I'm confused with the plural of barn. How would one say "No children are ugly." ?

[HelenCarlsson]

Inga barn är fula.

ett barn - flera barn

[spiffwalker]

Ooh I see, I was focusing on the wrong part of the sentence! Thank you!

[norgenflorgen]

"Inga barn är fula."

-- Ett barn, två barn

For 'barn', the indefinite plural is the same as the indefinite singular. I hope this helps!!

[Ultorex]

What about that child that walks like an elk?

[Aryan1337]

Thanks mom

I was a bit confused by the pronunciation rules, so I put ingest barn är fullt. It seems there is a g sound in there for ful but not full.

[Zmrzlina]

"Inget barn är fullt" means "no child is drunk", which we should surely hope! :D

That aside, there is no G-sound in there.

[JimLeonard0]

I didn't mention that this was for the type what you hear question. What in particular should I be listening for in this case?

[Zmrzlina]

I don't know where the G-sound was heard, but the audio sounds quite good to me.

[ChevalMugs]

I was confused by the pronunciation of 'fult', it came out sounding like 'fublet', it definitely sounded like it was 2 syllables...

[norgenflorgen]

Here's my rant explaining this:

Say the sentence out loud -- if you listen closely, your tongue naturally rolls off the 'l' because of the vowel length before it. This is what creates that illusion of a 'g' or fake vowel sound being tagged on the end.

Additional fun fact:

If your tongue didn't roll on its own, it's likely that your 'u' vowel length wasn't long enough, and you probably just said 'full/drunk' instead of 'ful/ugly'. :)

[miketaylr]

i thought it mean " No, because the child is ugly."

[devalanteriel]

That would be Nej, för barnet är fult.

My wife started watching Stranger Things again recently. I said during the first episode "oh is this the one with the ugly kids?"
