"Bönder arbetar inte på kontor."

Translation: Farmers do not work in offices.

[kitsummer]

'bönder' sounds like 'dem der' in both ways - is it supposed to...?

[Gigano]

I agree, it confused me as well.

[NatalieBoa3]

They do, actually. Modern farmers need computers, too.

[JoseeV64]

I think "han arbetar på kontor" means that somebody works in the office of a company. The modern farmer has a room that is called office, but he doesn't "work in an office".

The recording seems to say "böndrar" but the written text says "bönder".

[NatalieBoa3]

I have to remember that it is not i here but på.

[drafthx]

i'm not sure about that but i think we have the same difference in french when you want to say "dans le bureau" et "au bureau". i don't know if it's the same but it helps me.

[NatalieBoa3]

Theur home offices, that is.

[ahbeetay5]

Is "bönder" supposed to sound like "dem der" ?

[devalanteriel]

No, not at all. Honestly, I think the voice gets it correctly here.

[Monsieur-Xavier]

why is "farmers do not work at the office" wrong? - i do not see from the swedish that "in offices" must follow. :-/

[KonstigaKatten]

"Kontor" is the plural form of office. "The office" would be "kontoret".
