- Lucas: Welcome back to Learn Swedish with Fexingo. I'm Lucas. Luna: And I'm Luna. Episode 133, can you believe it? Lucas: I know. And we are at the bakery again. But today we are going to really lock in those semla phrases. Luna: Oh good. Because I still mix up 'en semla' and 'en bulle' sometimes. Lucas: That's totally normal. So let's start fresh. First phrase: Jag skulle vilja ha en semla. Luna: Jag skulle vilja ha en semla. That means 'I would like to have a semla'. Lucas: Exactly. Say it again? Luna: Jag skulle vilja ha en semla. Lucas: Good. Now, a common question: Har ni någon med mandelmassa? Luna: Har ni någon med mandelmassa? That's 'Do you have one with almond paste?'. Lucas: Perfect. Mandelmassa is the almond filling. Try it. Luna: Har ni någon med mandelmassa? Lucas: Yes. Now, when you decide to buy, you say: Jag tar en semla, tack. Luna: Jag tar en semla, tack. 'I'll take a semla, thanks.' Lucas: Right. And then you ask the price: Hur mycket kostar en semla? Luna: Hur mycket kostar en semla? 'How much does a semla cost?' Lucas: And after eating, you say: Tack, det var gott. Luna: Tack, det var gott. 'Thanks, that was good.' Lucas: Let's put it together. Imagine you walk into a bakery. What do you say first? Luna: Jag skulle vilja ha en semla. Lucas: Then the baker asks if you want almond paste. You say? Luna: Har ni någon med mandelmassa? Lucas: They say yes. So you say? Luna: Jag tar en semla, tack. Lucas: Then you ask the price? Luna: Hur mycket kostar en semla? Lucas: They say twenty-five kronor. You pay, eat, and say? Luna: Tack, det var gott. Lucas: You nailed it.
