- Lucas: Welcome back to Learn Swedish with Fexingo! I'm Lucas. Luna: And I'm Luna. Episode 119! Can you believe it? Lucas: I know! And today we're going to a café. A classic Swedish fika. Luna: Oh, I love fika! But I always get nervous ordering. What's the simplest thing to say? Lucas: Let's start with just: En kaffe, tack. That means 'One coffee, please.' Listen: En kaffe, tack. Luna: En kaffe, tack. Lucas: Perfect! En kaffe, tack. Very straightforward. Luna: But what if I want something fancier? Like a latte? Lucas: Then you say: Jag tar en latte. 'I'll have a latte.' Jag tar en latte. Luna: Jag tar en latte. Lucas: Exactly. Or if you want a coffee with milk, you can say: Jag tar en kaffe med mjölk. 'I'll have a coffee with milk.' Jag tar en kaffe med mjölk. Luna: Jag tar en kaffe med mjölk. That's useful. Lucas: And what if you want to ask if they have a specific kind of milk? Like soy milk? You ask: Har ni sojamjölk? 'Do you have soy milk?' Har ni sojamjölk? Luna: Har ni sojamjölk? That's good to know. I often go for oat milk, but I'll start with soy. Lucas: And of course, you'll want to know the price. So ask: Vad kostar en kaffe? 'How much is a coffee?' Vad kostar en kaffe? Luna: Vad kostar en kaffe? Simple. Lucas: Let's practice a little scene. Imagine we're at the counter. I'm the barista. Luna: Okay. Hej! Lucas: Hej! Vad vill du ha? Luna: En kaffe, tack. Har ni sojamjölk? Lucas: Ja, vi har sojamjölk. Vill du ha sojamjölk i kaffet? Luna: Ja, tack. Vad kostar en kaffe? Lucas: Den kostar 35 kronor. Luna: Okej, jag tar en kaffe med sojamjölk. Lucas: Bra! That's a whole conversation. You ordered coffee with soy milk and asked the price. Luna: I did! And it felt natural. Let me repeat the phrases: En kaffe, tack. Har ni sojamjölk? Vad kostar en kaffe? Jag tar en latte. Jag tar en kaffe med mjölk. Lucas: You've got them!
