"We recently came home."

Translation: Vi kom nyligen hem.

[markopeter]

What's the difference between "hem" and "hemma"?

[devalanteriel]

The former means home, the latter means at home.

Tack för föreklaringen!

[Buzdawg]

Could nyligen kom vi hem also be used, or is it uncommon?

[devalanteriel]

It's less idiomatic but perfectly fine.

Vad betyder nyss till skillnad från nyligen?

[Arnauti]

nyss is more recently, a better translation into English would be a short while ago

[jarrettph]

What would be the best translation for We just came home? Nyss or nyligen?

[devalanteriel]

nyss, definitely - nyligen would typically mean "recently".

[bearded-bod]

Tack. Alltså, just now, ungefär?

[Arnauti]

Ja, det är bra.

[Bilgeska]

Why is it "kom" and not "kam"?

[devalanteriel]

kam is German, 1/3 person singular - in Swedish, it means "comb". :)

[Bilgeska]

Ups :D

[Jupp993513]

Why is it nyligen? Is this a Plural? Would it be different for "I came home recently"?

[devalanteriel]

No, nyligen is the adverb "recently". It doesn't have singular or plural forms.

Would 'nyligen kom vi hem' be correct? Idk why, this feels like it is correct as well (maybe I'm applying to much german or english grammar to swedish)

[devalanteriel]

It's grammatical, but unidiomatic to the point that I don't think it should be accepted.
