- Lucas: Välkommen tillbaka till Learn Swedish with Fexingo, episode 160. Luna: Yes, we're back! And I'm ready for more Swedish. What are we learning today? Lucas: Today we're going to a bakery to order a smörgås. Luna: A smörgås? Isn't that like an open-faced sandwich? Lucas: Exactly. A smörgås is a classic Swedish open sandwich, often on rye bread with toppings like cheese, ham, shrimp, or egg. Luna: Oh, I love those. I had one with shrimp and egg last time. Delicious. Lucas: Great. So let's start with the basic phrase: 'Jag skulle vilja ha en smörgås.' Luna: Jag skulle vilja ha en smörgås. That means 'I would like a smörgås.' Lucas: Perfect. Say it again. Luna: Jag skulle vilja ha en smörgås. Lucas: Good. Now, if you want to ask the price, you say: 'Vad kostar en smörgås?' Luna: Vad kostar en smörgås? How much does a smörgås cost? Lucas: Exactly. Try it. Luna: Vad kostar en smörgås? Lucas: Excellent. Now, when you decide to buy one, you say: 'Jag tar en smörgås med räkor.' Luna: Jag tar en smörgås med räkor. I'll take a smörgås with shrimp. Lucas: Yes. And you can also ask: 'Har ni någon med ost och skinka?' Luna: Har ni någon med ost och skinka? Do you have one with cheese and ham? Lucas: Perfect. And to finish, just say: 'Tack, hej då!' Luna: Tack, hej då! Thanks, bye. Lucas: Let's practice a mini dialogue. I'll be the baker. You come in. Luna: Okay. Hej! Jag skulle vilja ha en smörgås. Lucas: Vad kostar en smörgås? Luna: Oops, that was my line. Let me try again. Hej! Jag skulle vilja ha en smörgås. Lucas: Varsågod. Vilken smörgås vill du ha? Luna: Jag tar en smörgås med räkor. Har ni någon med ost och skinka? Lucas: Ja, vi har båda. Det blir 45 kronor. Luna: Tack, hej då! Lucas: Bra! You did it. Now let's go through the phrases one more time. Luna: Yeah, repetition is key. Jag skulle vilja ha en smörgås. Lucas: Vad kostar en smörgås? Luna: Jag tar en smörgås med räkor. Lucas: Har ni någon med ost och skinka? Luna: Tack, hej då!
