Welcome

Welcome to Swedish Language Resources. This interactive document is an evolving work that collects resources for English speakers who are learning the Swedish language. I started this when I was working through the Swedish language course on Duolingo. The Wordpress site where it was originally hosted suffered from some bitrot, so I moved it over to a nice fresh MkDocs site.

Background

Back in 2015, I started learning Danish via Duolingo. After several months, I completed the Danish course and wanted to keep up my consecutive days streak. Because it was amusing, I decided to continue with the Swedish language course, because, well, why not, that's why. The language is itself similar to Danish, as both are North Germanic languages. I found the Swedish course to be much easier than Danish, mostly because those built-in similarities.

This page exists to collect resources from around the Internet, principally YouTube, to help students learning Danish and provide a catalog for my own use. Please feel free to suggest additional material.
