"Does this insurance cover the entire family?"

Translation: Täcker den här försäkringen hela familjen?

[Ankulou]

Why is "den hela familjen" wrong?

[devalanteriel]

hel is a special case - the definite form never takes the definite article. It's a rare exception.

[Ankulou]

Oh, good to know! Thanks a lot! :)

Täcker denna fösäkringen hela familjen. Va mitt förslag. Kanske bör va ett alternativ?

[HelenCarlsson]

As far as I know, the proper sentence with "denna" is "Täcker denna försäkring hela familjen?". However, denna + definite form is used a lot in southern and western Sweden, so let's see what the moderators think about it :)!

It should also be accepted. It is for many sentences at least.

Why is försäkring in indefinite form not accepted?

[devalanteriel]

"this" can translate either to denna or den här. But denna always takes the indefinite, and den här always takes the definite. So you can say denna försäkring or den här försäkringen, but not mix the two.
