About the course

The course provides an introduction to Swedish phonetics and phonology (the study of the sounds of language) from a comparative and didactic point of view. The aim is to identify the qualities that pose a challenge to second language learners, including sounds that are difficult to pronounce and the overall rhythm and sing-songy melody of the Swedish language. The course will provide tools for teaching Swedish to non-native speakers.
