As a Swedish language teacher with 20 years of experience, I have guided numerous students through the basics of Swedish. In this lesson, we will focus on the numbers 0-20 in Swedish, including their pronunciation.
=== Importance of Learning Numbers ===
 
Numbers play a vital role in communication. They help us quantify things, tell the time, and manage money, among other uses. For beginners, mastering numbers can significantly ease your transition into everyday interactions in Sweden. Knowing how to count from 0 to 20 will set a solid foundation for learning more complex numerical concepts later on.

== Numbers 0-10 ==
== Introduction to Numbers 0-20 ==


Let's start with the basic numbers from 0 to 10 in Swedish:
Let's start our journey by listing the numbers from 0 to 20 in Swedish, along with their pronunciations and English translations.


{| class="wikitable"

|-
|-
| noll || [nɔl] || zero
 
| noll || /nɔl/ || zero

|-
|-
| nio || [ni:o] || nine
 
| nio || /niːo/ || nine
 
|-
|-
| tio || [tɪo:] || ten
|}


Note that the Swedish pronunciation can be tricky, especially for non-native speakers. It's important to focus on the correct vowel and consonant sounds for each word.
| tio || /tiːo/ || ten


To remember these numbers, try to associate them with something in your life that is related to the number. For example, "två" can be associated with "two eyes" or "två hundar" (two dogs).
|-


== Numbers 11-20 ==
| elva || /ˈɛlva/ || eleven


Now let's move on to numbers from 11 to 20, which follow a different pattern than the numbers 1-10 in Swedish:
|-
 
| tolv || /tɔlv/ || twelve


{| class="wikitable"
! Swedish !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
| elva || [ɛlːva] || eleven
 
| tretton || /ˈtrɛtːɔn/ || thirteen
 
|-
|-
| tolv || [tɔlv] || twelve
 
| fjorton || /ˈfjʊr.tɔn/ || fourteen
 
|-
|-
| tretton || [trɛtɔn] || thirteen
 
| femton || /ˈfɛm.tɔn/ || fifteen
 
|-
|-
| fjorton || [fjɔrtɔn] || fourteen
 
| sexton || /ˈsɛk.tɔn/ || sixteen
 
|-
|-
| femton || [fɛmtɔn] || fifteen
 
| sjutton || /ˈʃʉt.tɔn/ || seventeen
 
|-
|-
| sexton || [sɛxtɔn] || sixteen
 
| arton || /ˈɑːr.tɔn/ || eighteen
 
|-
|-
| sjutton || [ɧʉtːɔn] or [ɕʉtːɔn] || seventeen
 
| nitton || /ˈnɪt.tɔn/ || nineteen
 
|-
|-
| arton || [ɑrtːɔn] || eighteen
 
|-
| tjugo || /ˈɕyːɡo/ || twenty
| nitton || [ni:tɔn] || nineteen
 
|-
| tjugo || [ˈtjʉːgʊ] || twenty
|}
|}


Note that "tjugo" means "twenty," and it's the only two-digit number that is not constructed from a combination of smaller numbers.
=== Pronunciation Tips ===
 
* '''Listen Carefully:''' Swedish pronunciation can be tricky due to its melodic tone. Try listening to audio recordings or practicing with a partner.
 
* '''Practice Aloud:''' Don’t be shy! Say the numbers out loud to get comfortable with the sounds.
 
* '''Focus on the Vowels:''' Pay attention to the long and short vowels, as they can change the meaning.
 
=== Common Usage of Numbers ===
 
Now that we've covered the numbers, let’s see how they might be used in everyday situations:
 
* '''Shopping:''' "Det kostar femton kronor." (It costs fifteen kronor.)
