== Introduction ==
=== The Importance of Numbers in Swedish ===


Welcome to the lesson on numbers above 100 in Swedish! In this lesson, we will continue our exploration of Swedish numbers and learn how to say and write numbers above 100. Being able to express numbers is an essential skill in any language, and it allows us to communicate effectively in various contexts, such as talking about age, time, quantities, and more. By the end of this lesson, you will be able to confidently use numbers above 100 in Swedish conversations and written texts.
Numbers are everywhere in daily life! From telling time to discussing age, quantities, and prices, mastering numbers is essential. In Swedish, much like in English, numbers can seem daunting at first, but with practice, you'll find them easier to manage.  


To help you grasp the material, we will start with an overview of the numbers from 0 to 100, which we have covered in previous lessons. We will then dive into the specific rules and patterns for numbers above 100, including pronunciation and writing. Throughout the lesson, I will provide clear explanations, plenty of examples, and exercises for you to practice what you have learned.
This lesson will focus on:


Let's get started!
* How to form numbers from 101 to 999


== Numbers 0-100: A Quick Review ==
* Special cases in pronunciation


Before we move on to numbers above 100, let's quickly review the numbers from 0 to 100 in Swedish. These numbers form the foundation for understanding larger numbers, so it's important to have a solid grasp of them.
* Examples in context


Here is a table with the numbers from 0 to 20:
* Practice exercises to solidify your understanding
 
=== How to Form Numbers Above 100 ===
 
In Swedish, numbers above 100 are constructed using a straightforward system. Here’s how it works:
 
1. '''Hundreds''': The base number for hundreds is "hundra" (hundred).
 
2. '''Tens and Units''': Numbers from 1 to 99 are added to the hundreds.
 
For example:
 
* 101 is "etthundraett"
 
* 250 is "tvåhundrafemtio"
 
Here’s a breakdown of the formation:
 
* Start with the hundreds (e.g., "etthundra" for 100, "tvåhundra" for 200).
 
* Then add the tens and units as you would normally.
 
=== Examples of Numbers Above 100 ===
 
Let’s look at some examples to help clarify this concept:

|}


As you can see, the numbers from 0 to 20 have their own unique names, with some exceptions like "tio" (ten) and "tjugo" (twenty).
As you can see from the examples, once you understand the structure, it becomes much easier to form and pronounce larger numbers in Swedish.
 
=== Special Cases in Pronunciation ===
 
When learning numbers above 100, pay attention to the following pronunciation tips:
 
* '''Consonant Clusters''': In some cases, consonants from the hundreds may blend with the tens or units, which can change how you pronounce them.
 
* '''Stress''': The primary stress often falls on the hundreds place, making it important to emphasize that part of the number when speaking.
 
=== Practice Exercises ===
 
Now that we've covered the basics, let’s reinforce your learning with some exercises!
 
==== Exercise 1: Fill in the Blanks ====
 
Fill in the blanks with the correct Swedish number:
 
1. 104 = ___________

2. tvåhundrafemton
 
3. trehundrasextiosju
 
4. fyrahundratvå
 
5. femhundranittio
 
==== Exercise 2: Translate the Following Numbers ====
 
Translate the following numbers into Swedish:
 
1. Six hundred thirty-four
 
2. Three hundred eighteen
 
3. Nine hundred seventy-nine
 
4. Eight hundred twelve
 
5. Two hundred forty-five
 
'''Solutions:'''
 
1. sexhundratrettiofyra
 
2. trehundraarton
 
3. niohundrasjuttio nio
 
4. åttahundratolv
 
5. tvåhundrafyrtiofem
 
==== Exercise 3: Listening Practice ====
 
Ask a friend to read out the following numbers in Swedish while you write them down:
 
1. 101
 
2. 205
 
3. 319
 
4. 422
 
5. 598
 
After your friend reads them, check your answers.
 
'''Solutions:'''
 
1. etthundraett
 
2. tvåhundrafem


Now, let's continue with the numbers from 20 to 100. In Swedish, these numbers follow a pattern where the tens place is combined with the ones place using the word "och" (and). Here is a table with the numbers from 20 to 100:
3. trehundranitton


{| class="wikitable"
4. fyrahundratjugo två
! Swedish !! Pronunciation !! English
 
|-
5. femhundranittioåtta
| tjugo || [ˈtjuːɡʊ] || twenty
 
|-
==== Exercise 4: Create Your Own Numbers ====
| trettio || [ˈtrɛtɔ] || thirty
 
|-
Try to create your own numbers in Swedish using the following prompts:
| fyrtio || [ˈfʏʈɔ] || forty
 
|-
1. One hundred and ten
| femtio || [ˈfɛmʈɔ] || fifty
 
|-
2. Four hundred and fifty-three
| sextio || [ˈsɛksʈɔ] || sixty
 
|-
3. Seven hundred and sixty-eight
| sjuttio || [ˈɧʉːʈɔ] || seventy
 
|-
4. Five hundred and thirty-four
| åttio || [ˈɔtːɔ] || eighty
 
|-
5. Eight hundred and twenty-one
| nittio || [ˈnɪtːɔ] || ninety
|-
| hundra || [ˈhɵndra] || one hundred
|}


To form the numbers from 21 to 99, simply combine the tens place with the ones place using "och." For example, "tjugoen" is twenty-one, "trettiotre" is thirty-three, and so on. Note that the ones place (except for one) often has a modified form when combined with the tens place. For example, "tjugoett" means twenty-one, not "tjugoett" (twenty and one).
'''Solutions:'''


Now that we have refreshed our memory on numbers up to 100, let's move on to the main focus of this lesson: numbers above 100.
1. etthundratio


== Numbers Above 100: Pronunciation and Writing ==
2. fyrahundrafemtiotre


When it comes to numbers above 100 in Swedish, there are a few patterns and rules to keep in mind. Let's start with the pronunciation of these numbers.
3. sjuhundrasextioåtta


To pronounce numbers above 100, we combine the word for "hundred" (hundra) with the tens and ones places, just like in English. However, there are a couple of important things to note. First, we use the word "och" (and) between the tens and ones places. Second, unlike in English, we do not use "one" in the ones place after "hundred." Instead, we use the base form of the number. For example, "one hundred twenty-three" is "ett hundra tjugotre" in Swedish, not "ett hundra tjugoen."
4. femhundratrettiofyra


Let's take a look at some examples to demonstrate the pronunciation of numbers above 100:
5. åttahundratjugoett


{| class="wikitable"
==== Exercise 5: Matching Exercise ====
! Swedish !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
| ett hundra || [ɛt ˈhɵndra] || one hundred
|-
| ett hundra ett || [ɛt ˈhɵndra ɛt] || one hundred one
|-
| ett hundra tjugofem || [ɛt ˈhɵndra ˈtjuːɡʊˌfɛm] || one hundred twenty-five
|-
| två hundra || [tvoː ˈhɵndra] || two hundred
|-
| tre hundra femtio || [treː ˈhɵndra ˈfɛmʈɔ] || three hundred fifty
|}


As you can see, the pronunciation of numbers above 100 is relatively straightforward. Just remember to use "hundra" for "hundred" and "och" for "and" when combining the tens and ones places.
Match the Swedish numbers with their English translations:


Now, let's move on to writing numbers above 100 in Swedish. When writing these numbers, we follow a similar pattern as in English. We write the hundreds place, followed by a space, the tens place, and the ones place. For example, "one hundred twenty-three" is written as "123" in Arabic numerals and "ett hundra tjugotre" in Swedish. It's important to note that there is no symbol for "hundra" in Swedish, so we write it out as a word.
* A. etthundratjugo


Here are some examples to illustrate the writing of numbers above 100:
* B. niohundranittiofyra


* 100 - ett hundra
* C. trehundratrettiofem
* 101 - ett hundra ett
* 125 - ett hundra tjugofem
* 200 - två hundra
* 350 - tre hundra femtio


Now that we have covered the pronunciation and writing of numbers above 100, it's time to practice what we have learned!
* D. sjuhundratjugoett


== Exercise: Practice Writing Numbers Above 100 ==
* E. femhundraåtta


In this exercise, you will practice writing numbers above 100 in Swedish. For each prompt, write the corresponding number in Swedish using the correct spelling and word order. Remember to include "hundra" for "hundred" and "och" for "and" when necessary.
1. A. five hundred eight


1. 205
2. B. three hundred thirty-five
2. 377
3. 429
4. 550
5. 678


Ready to check your answers? Here are the correct translations:
3. C. one hundred twenty


1. två hundra fem
4. D. seven hundred twenty-one
2. tre hundra sjuttiosju
3. fyra hundra tjugonio
4. fem hundra femtio
5. sex hundra sjuttioåtta


Great job! You're well on your way to mastering numbers above 100 in Swedish. Let's move on to the cultural section to learn more about how numbers are used in Swedish culture.
5. E. nine hundred ninety-four


== Swedish Cultural Insight: Lucky and Unlucky Numbers ==
'''Solutions:'''


In many cultures, certain numbers are associated with luck or superstitions. Sweden is no exception, and there are some interesting beliefs and traditions related to numbers. Let's explore a couple of examples:
* A → 3


1. Number 13: In many Western cultures, the number 13 is considered unlucky. This superstition is also present in Sweden, where it is known as "trettondagen" (the thirteenth day). However, unlike in some other countries, Friday the 13th is not associated with bad luck in Sweden. Instead, it is said to be the day when witches fly to a mythical place called Blåkulla. On this day, children dress up as witches and go door-to-door, exchanging drawings and paintings for candy.
* B → 5


2. Number 7: In Swedish folklore, the number 7 is associated with good luck. It is believed that if you count seven different flowers during Midsummer's Eve and put them under your pillow, you will dream of your future spouse. This tradition, called "sju sorters blommor" (seven kinds of flowers), is still practiced today during the Midsummer celebrations.
* C → 2


These examples show how numbers can hold cultural significance and be tied to traditions and beliefs. It's always fascinating to explore the cultural aspects of a language, as it provides a deeper understanding of its speakers and their customs.

Whether you're shopping in a Swedish store, discussing prices, or simply engaging in conversation, being able to handle numbers confidently will enhance your communication skills.

In this lesson, we’ll explore how to form and pronounce numbers above 100 in Swedish, discover some patterns that make learning easier, and practice with examples and exercises to reinforce what you've learned.

Let’s dive right in!

The Importance of Numbers in Swedish[edit | edit source]

Numbers are everywhere in daily life! From telling time to discussing age, quantities, and prices, mastering numbers is essential. In Swedish, much like in English, numbers can seem daunting at first, but with practice, you'll find them easier to manage.

This lesson will focus on:

  • How to form numbers from 101 to 999
  • Special cases in pronunciation
  • Examples in context
  • Practice exercises to solidify your understanding

How to Form Numbers Above 100[edit | edit source]

In Swedish, numbers above 100 are constructed using a straightforward system. Here’s how it works:

1. Hundreds: The base number for hundreds is "hundra" (hundred).

2. Tens and Units: Numbers from 1 to 99 are added to the hundreds.

For example:

  • 101 is "etthundraett"
  • 250 is "tvåhundrafemtio"

Here’s a breakdown of the formation:

  • Start with the hundreds (e.g., "etthundra" for 100, "tvåhundra" for 200).
  • Then add the tens and units as you would normally.

Examples of Numbers Above 100[edit | edit source]

Let’s look at some examples to help clarify this concept:

Swedish Pronunciation English
etthundra ˈɛtːhʉn.dra one hundred
etthundraett ˈɛtːhʉn.dra.ɛt one hundred one
etthundratvå ˈɛtːhʉn.dra.tvoː one hundred two

fyrahundra fyːˈhʉn.dra four hundred
femhundra fɛmˈhʉn.dra five hundred
sexhundra sɛkˈsʉn.dra six hundred
sjuhundra ɧʉːˈhʉn.dra seven hundred
åttahundra ɔtːaˈhʉn.dra eight hundred
niohundra ˈniː.oˈhʉn.dra nine hundred
niohundratjugofem ˈniː.oˈhʉn.dra.ˈjʉː.ɡo.fɛm nine hundred twenty-five
åttahundranittio ɔtːaˈhʉn.dra.ˈnɪt.tɪ.o eight hundred ninety
tvåhundranittioett tvɔːˈhʉn.dra.ˈnɪt.tɪ.o.ɛt two hundred ninety-one
etthundraåttio ˈɛtːhʉn.dra.ˈɔt.tɪ.o one hundred eighty
femhundranitton fɛmˈhʉn.draˈnɪt.tɔn five hundred nineteen
sjuhundratjugotvå ɧʉːˈhʉn.dra.ˈjʉː.ɡo.tvɔː seven hundred twenty-two

As you can see from the examples, once you understand the structure, it becomes much easier to form and pronounce larger numbers in Swedish.

Special Cases in Pronunciation[edit | edit source]

When learning numbers above 100, pay attention to the following pronunciation tips:

  • Consonant Clusters: In some cases, consonants from the hundreds may blend with the tens or units, which can change how you pronounce them.
