- Lucas: Hej hej, and welcome back to Learn Swedish with Fexingo. Luna: Hej Lucas! Oh, it's so good to be here again. Lucas: Yeah, absolutely. And I love that you're already using 'hej' from our first episodes. Luna: Right, it's becoming automatic. So what are we learning today? Lucas: Today is all about counting. But we're keeping it tiny — just numbers one through five. Luna: Oh, perfect. That feels manageable. Lucas: Exactly. Let's start with number one. In Swedish, that's 'ett'. Lucas: Say it slowly with me: e-tt. Luna: E-tt. Lucas: Good! Now normally: 'ett'. Luna: Ett. Lucas: There you go. 'Ett' means one. Luna: Ett. Okay, got it. Lucas: Number two is 'två'. Lucas: Slowly: tv-å. Luna: Tv-å. Lucas: Yeah. Normally: 'två'. Luna: Två. Lucas: Perfect. 'Två' means two. Luna: Två. Wait, that's kind of fun to say. Lucas: Totally. Now number three: 'tre'. Lucas: Slowly: t-re. Luna: T-re. Lucas: Right. Normally: 'tre'. Luna: Tre. Lucas: Exactly. 'Tre' means three. Luna: Tre. That one feels familiar somehow. Lucas: Yeah, it's close to English 'three'. Now number four: 'fyra'. Lucas: Slowly: fy-ra. Luna: Fy-ra. Lucas: Good. Normally: 'fyra'. Luna: Fyra. Lucas: There it is. 'Fyra' means four. Luna: Fyra. Okay. Lucas: And finally, number five: 'fem'. Lucas: Slowly: f-em. Luna: F-em. Lucas: Yeah. Normally: 'fem'. Luna: Fem. Lucas: Nailed it. 'Fem' means five. Luna: Fem. All right, let me try them all. Lucas: Go for it. Luna: Ett, två, tre, fyra, fem. Lucas: Oh that's so good. You did it. Luna: Thanks! But I need to hear them again. Lucas: For sure. Let's count together: ett, två, tre, fyra, fem. Luna: Ett, två, tre, fyra, fem. Lucas: Perfect. Now let's use them in a tiny scene. Remember our bakery episode? Luna: Oh yeah, with 'hej' and 'god morgon'. Lucas: Exactly. Imagine you're at that bakery, and you want to buy some pastries. Luna: Okay, I'm ready. Lucas: I'll be the baker. Hej, god morgon! Luna: Hej! I'd like... ett kanelbulle, please. Lucas: Ahh, yes! One cinnamon bun. 'Ett kanelbulle'. Luna: And actually, make it två kanelbullar. Lucas: Two cinnamon buns. 'Två kanelbullar'. Luna: And maybe tre mazariner too. Lucas: Three almond tarts. 'Tre mazariner'. Luna: So that's... ett, två, tre... wait, I lost count. Lucas: Let's count your pastries: ett kanelbulle, två kanelbullar, tre mazariner. Luna: Right. So that's... one, two, three items total. Lucas: Exactly. And you used 'ett', 'två', and 'tre' naturally. Luna: That was fun. Can we do another scene? Lucas: Absolutely. How about counting people? Like friends meeting for fika. Luna: Oh, I love that. Lucas: Imagine you're telling me how many people are coming. Try it. Luna: Okay. So, we have... ett, två, tre... fyra people total. Lucas: Good! 'Fyra people' — or 'fyra personer' in Swedish. Luna: Fyra personer. And if one more joins, that's fem personer. Lucas: There you go. 'Fem personer'. Luna: Ett, två, tre, fyra, fem. Lucas: You're getting it. Let's practice counting again. Repeat after me: ett. Luna: Ett. Lucas: Två. Luna: Två. Lucas: Tre. Luna: Tre. Lucas: Fyra. Luna: Fyra. Lucas: Fem. Luna: Fem. Lucas: Now all together: ett, två, tre, fyra, fem. Luna: Ett, två, tre, fyra, fem. Lucas: Perfect. Time for a tiny recap quiz. I'll say a number in English, you say it in Swedish. Luna: Okay, I'm ready. Lucas: Number one. Luna: Ett. Lucas: Yes. Number four. Luna: Fyra. Lucas: Good. Number two. Luna: Två. Lucas: Right. Number five. Luna: Fem. Lucas: And number three. Luna: Tre. Lucas: Absolutely. You nailed it. Luna: Oh, that feels good. Ett, två, tre, fyra, fem. Lucas: There it is. So today we learned: ett, två, tre, fyra, fem. Luna: Numbers one through five. I'm going to practice counting everything now. Lucas: That's the spirit. Thanks for learning with us today on Learn Swedish with Fexingo. Luna: Tack så mycket, Lucas. This was great. Lucas: Tack to you too. Practice these till we chat again. Luna: For sure. Hejdå! Lucas: Hejdå!
