Poor kid... sleeping on the floor all these years

Or maybe its just a toddler who was been sleeping in a crib, and know he wants to sleep in a bed.

Well, how is this possible with IKEA?

Is it more common to say 'vill ha' rather than simply 'vill' in Swedish in this context? In English it implies a more permanent possession I guess rather than a bed for e.g just a night

[Arnauti]

It would be wrong to use just vill here in Swedish. We use the particle verb vill ha for wanting nouns, and just vill for wanting + verb. There's a little more about vill ha here: https://www.duolingo.com/comment/5892480

[TanyaBasto]

The German equivalent sentence for "vill ha" is:

Jag vill ha

Ich will haben

The exact same meaning, just the grammar is different than swedish:

Jag vill ha en hund

Ich will einen Hund haben.
