Negation in Swedish
To make a Swedish sentence negative we use the word "inte".
We put it in different positions in a sentence depending on if it is a main clause or a subordinate clause.
MAIN CLAUSE
- "Jag gillar inte glass, eftersom jag är allergisk mot mjölk." ➡ "inte" is placed after the verb
I do not like ice cream, because I am allergic to milk.
SUBORDINATE CLAUSE
- "Eftersom jag inte gillar glass, äter jag frukt istället." ➡ "inte" is placed before the verb
Because I do not like ice cream, I eat fruit instead.
