I never found out what was in that basket, and to this day it still haunts me...

Does that make you a basket case?


https://www.duolingo.com/profile/Myra712378

I suppose. Very clever...

Myra712378, it was food for her grandma that her mom had put in the basket. I think it varies by each version of the story, but I think it's usually bread, cheese, maybe some cake, maybe some wine, maybe some flowers...

Is "What is in your basket?" an acceptable translation?


https://www.duolingo.com/profile/Arnauti

We'd say Vad är det i korgen/din korg? for that.

"What do you have in your basket?" said the Big Bad Wolf to Little Red Riding Hood. "Vad har du i din korg?", sade Stora Stygga Vargen till Rödluvan. Is my translation close?

    Shouldn't this be a classic case of Swedes omitting possessive pronoun? Logically it is your basket, and "what is in your basket" is much more neutral way to say this.


    https://www.duolingo.com/profile/Arnauti

    your basket is an accepted answer, but for 'what is it' we'd say vad är det, there's a difference in meaning.
