Making Plans
- 9 lessons
- Available
This chapter is about making plans with other people. You learn to say what you are going to do, invite someone and reply, say what you like, use mig, dig, honom and henne, ask when and who, and write a short message.
The first five lessons explain each idea in English with short Swedish examples, and the fifth gathers the main patterns of A1 in one table. Two more lessons show how to describe people and plans with är and how Swedish writes the sj and tj sounds. A reading text with a dialogue and the full chapter vocabulary follow.
Every lesson in this chapter is a written page. Read them in order, or open any lesson from the list.
