   • Language Review: Swedish  

Swedish is a North Germanic language spoken by approximately 10 million people, primarily in Sweden and parts of Finland. It evolved from Old Norse and shares close linguistic ties with Norwegian and Danish, forming the Scandinavian language continuum. Swedish uses the Latin alphabet with three additional letters (å, ä, ö) and features relatively simple grammar compared to other Germanic languages, with two grammatical genders (common and neuter) and no case system for nouns. The language underwent significant standardization during the 19th century, and modern Swedish is characterized by its melodic pitch accent, where the tone can distinguish between words with identical spelling. Swedish has contributed many loanwords to English, particularly through historical trade and cultural exchange, including words like "smorgasbord," "ombudsman," and "meatball." The language maintains regional dialects, though Standard Swedish based on the Stockholm dialect serves as the official form used in education, media, and government. Swedish is known for its compound word formation, allowing speakers to create extensive descriptive terms by combining multiple words into single units. The language has been influenced by Low German during the medieval period and later by French and English, reflecting Sweden's historical connections and modern globalization.
