Swedish Vocabulary → Colors and Numbers → Numbers above 100

As a beginner in Swedish, you have already learned numbers from 0 to 100. Now, it's time to learn how to count above 100. In this lesson, we will teach you how to say and write numbers above 100 in Swedish.

Numbers above 100

In Swedish, numbers above 100 are written in the same way as in English. The only difference is that the digits are grouped differently. Instead of having three digits in each group, Swedish groups the digits into twos or sometimes fours depending on the number.

For example:

• 105 is "hundra fem" in Swedish.
• 234 is "två hundra trettiofyra".
• 1,000 is "ett tusen".
• 10,000 is "tio tusen".
• 1,000,000 is "en miljon".

This might seem complicated, but it's actually quite easy to learn. Keep in mind that once you understand the basic principles, it's just a matter of counting.

Here's a table with some examples:

Swedish	Pronunciation	English
105	hundra fem	one hundred five
234	två hundra trettiofyra	two hundred thirty-four
1,000	ett tusen	one thousand
10,000	tio tusen	ten thousand
1,000,000	en miljon	one million

It's important to note that when writing numbers in Swedish, commas are used instead of periods when separating digits. For example, 1,000 would be written as "1 000" in Swedish.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have now learned how to count above 100 in Swedish. Practice these numbers in context, using them in sentences so that you can integrate them into your vocabulary. It will also help you to review the numbers from previous lessons.

Remember, learning a new language is all about practicing and integrating what you learn into your everyday life. Keep up the good work and see you in the next lesson.
