Word order
This means that the verb is always placed in the second position in a main clause.
In the first position you could find an adverb of place: där (there) or an adverb of time: nu (now), snart (soon) or a subject: jag (I) or something else. It doesn't have to be just one word, it could be a phrase or a subordinate clause.

Nouns & Cases
Nouns in Swedish have two genders, common and neuter, which adjectives must agree with when modifying nouns. These genders are signified by the indefinite articles: en and ett. In the vocabulary lists, a noun followed by (n) means that it is a neuter noun and it takes the indefinite article ett. The majority of nouns in Swedish are common gender, so they take the indefinite article en.
The only case of nouns that is used in Swedish is the genitive (showing possession), and it is easily formed by adding an -s to the noun. This is comparable to adding -'s in English to show possession. However, if the noun already ends in -s, then you add nothing (unlike English where we add -' or -'s). Anders bok = Anders's book

Commands (Imperative)

· Verbs that end in -ar in the present tense simply remove the -r to form the command (imperative).

· Verbs that end in -er in the present tense remove the -er to form the command.
