"Vi tar en promenad i skogen"

Translation: We take a walk in the forest

[JosVictorA7]

Could I say this for: "Jag tag en promenad med hunden"?

[devalanteriel]

Absolutely - I use that expression all the time. :)

[Bearzerker]

whats the difference between aker and promenad?

[devalanteriel]

You take a promenad by foot, but you åker in a vehicle.

[thorr18]

Gå and åker are verbs. Promenad is a noun. English walk just happens to be the same word for either verb or noun.

[Jean564934]

In British English, we usually say 'go for a walk' not 'take a walk'.

[devalanteriel]

Yes, and they're both accepted.

[thorr18]

I've seen the English noun promenade in only one place (TV's DS9) used many times to mean "a place to walk" in the way a boardwalk is, but apparently there was a time it could be used to mean "a walk", the same as promenad.

[devalanteriel]

Well, it's not accepted. :)
