Politeness & formality (sound respectful fast)

Formality is one of the fastest ways to sound natural in many languages.

What matters most

Modern Swedish is mostly informal, but polite phrases still matter.

  • When in doubt, choose the more polite form.
  • Memorize one polite question pattern and reuse it everywhere.
Jag heter ____.
My name is ____.
Var bor du?
Where do you live?
Pratar du engelska?
Do you speak English?

Mini challenge

Say your ‘Do you speak…?’ sentence in the polite form, then in the casual form (if your language has both).
