Days 3 & 4

I've got a bit out of synch here, so I'm trying to update the lessons on my day off from SFI (monday). It's just stopped snowing it started as I went to bed last night. I'm always pleased to see it, but it's messed up my plans to get regular runs going again, which have been disrupted after both the cold weather and christmas.

Day Three

It began with a discussion of how well people slept and, and we learnt the words:

		Hjarta - heart
		Hjärnan - Brain

We then went on to look at rules for pronounciation.

Pronouncing G

These rules below determine if a g is hard (god) or soft (sounds like a J :gifte)

This depends on the vowels:



Pronouncing K

The rules below determine if a k is hard (kommer) or soft (sh - kina):



Pronouncing sk

This is the so you can determine if it should be a hard sk e.g. skola or soft e.g. sked (spoon)
