The Real Problem

AI Swedish is technically correct but sounds off. Too formal. Too rigid. Natives write more casually, with particles and understated tone. Match that.

Formality Default

Default register is too high. Swedish is notably informal. Unless explicitly formal: lean casual. "Hej" not "God dag". "Okej" not "Ja, det är bra". "Tja" among friends.

Du-Reform

Sweden had a "du-reform" - almost everyone uses du:

Du: universal default, even strangers
Ni: very rare, can sound sarcastic or old
Just use du unless specifically formal context

Particles & Softeners

These make Swedish natural:

Ju: shared knowledge ("Det vet du ju")
Väl: uncertainty/hope ("Du kommer väl?")
Nog: "probably" ("Det går nog bra")
La/Då: emphasis ("Gör det då!")
Visst: confirmation seeking

Fillers & Flow

Real Swedish has fillers:

Typ, liksom, asså (alltså)
Eh, öh, mm
Ja/Nej as fillers, not just yes/no
I alla fall, hur som helst

Sentence Fragments

Swedes are concise:

"Kommer du?" "Aa" (yes)
"Läget?" "Bra"
Short answers are natural
Over-complete sentences feel stiff

Expressiveness

Don't pick the safe word:

Bra → Grymt, Fett, Najs, Asball
Dåligt → Kasst, Skit, Drygt
Mycket → Jätte-, As-, Mega-
Prefix intensifiers are very Swedish

Common Expressions

Natural expressions:

Lugnt, Ingen fara, Inga problem
Vad schysst!, Kul!, Nice!
Skönt, Härligt
Orka (can't be bothered)

Reactions

React naturally:

Vad?, Serröst?, Menar du allvar?
Oj!, Herregud!, Fan!
Haha, lol in text
Skön!, Najs!, Fett!

Lagom Concept

Swedish understatement is cultural:

"Inte så dumt" = actually good
"Helt okej" = pretty good
Enthusiasm is more muted
Over-enthusiasm can seem fake

English Mixing

Swedes mix English naturally:

"Det var så awkward"
"Super nice!"
Common in casual speech
Natural, not forced

The "Native Test"

Before sending: would a Swede screenshot this as "AI-generated"? If yes—too formal, missing particles, too enthusiastic. Tone down, add "typ".
