When you hear the 'Swedish weather', are you thinking of the freezing cold? the warm Gulf Stream makes the climate much milder than you may expect. Spring, summer, fall (Autumn) and winter all have their own special personalities. Springs runs from March to May, summer from June to August, Autumn from September to November and Winter from the end of November to February. This lesson will cover grammar and vocabulary on the Swedish weather, seasons and sentences in regards to weather forecasting.

Sweden's weather can be different depending where you are situated. The country can be divided into three big regions Götaland in the south, Svealand in the centre and Norrland in the north. Below will be examples of different weathers.
Vad är det för väder idag? | How's the weather today |
solig (det är soligt) | sunny (it is sunny) |
regnig (det är regnigt) | rainy (it is rainy) |
mulet (det är molnigt) | cloudy (it is cloudy) |
snöig (det är snöigt) | snowy (it is snowy) |
klart (det är klart) | clear (it is clear) |
varmt (it is warm) | warm (it is warm) |
blåsigt (Det är blåsigt) | windy (it is windy) |
dimmigt (det är dimmigt) | foggy (it is foddy) |
isigt (det är isiga) | icy (it is foggy) |
In Swedish, 'it is' (det är) will always come before the weather. Now look outside your window and write down what is the weather like in Swedish!
In Sweden there is no such things like the ''official first day of spring''. This is not because the seasons are so brief, however it is because seasons are not noted on the calendar. You somehow feel the season when it arrives. In Sweden the seasons are determined in accordance to a consistent week temperature reading. People know it is Autumn when it has been below 10°C for at least a 7 days non stop. This means that the season has changed.
Seasons |
|
|
|
vinter | winter | på vintern | in winter |
vår | spring | på våren | in spring |
sommar | summer | på sommaren | in summer |
höst | autumn | på hösten | in autumn |
Now it's going to get more complicated, we will writte sentences with both seasons and the weather. Pay attention and look at the pattern to avoid confusion. i.e;
Hej, vad är vädret kommer att bli som i morgon eftermiddag?
Hey, what is the weather going to be like tomorrow afternoon?
vädret sa att det kommer att bli soligt?
The weather forecast said it will be sunny.
Tack!
Thank you
If you want to find out the weather, you would use the first dialogue as a template. You would just need to adapt the question to your needs in terms of the context. On the other hand in order to ask for the present weather you would say hur är vädret (what is the weather like).
The second template would only be used if you wanted to know if a certain weather would occur on the same day.
Is it going to rain tomorrow? Kommer det att regna i morgon? how about looking at the forecast for tomorrow write down and practise saying what your weather will be like tomorrow. Below is a youtube video on weather vocabulary with pronunciation. See you later!

Hello!
My name is Nora and I am born and raised in Sweden and have lived most of my life within Sweden. I love cats and my interests are reading books, swimming and travelling.
I have a bachelor in social work and have worked in both Swedish and English speaking environments. For instance as a school counselor in an English speaking high school and as an English teacher in Cape Town in South Africa for kids.
I am studying Spanish myself at the moment and I know how hard it can be in the beginning with a new language. I also know how much fun it can be when you start to actually be able to communicate in your new language. I believe every new language you learn is going to expand your way of thinking and make you grow!
I can offer both teaching for absolute beginners in Swedish, but also if you want to develop the language skills you already have. I offer a free trial lesson.
If you want to know more about me or the learning process, feel free to contact me!
Have a nice day!
/Nora

Tere! I am a language teacher with more than ten years of experience. I have worked as a lecturer of Estonian language and culture at the Ivan Franko National University of Lviv in Ukraine, at the Tallinn University in Estonia and in numerous language schools. Currently, I am a freelance linguist based in Berlin and teach Estonian online.
It is important for me to introduce a language as a simple logical system that is easy to understand and use. As a teacher, I structure my classes and deliver knowledge in a clear and engaging way, combining theory with practice. Besides my endeavours to make my classes useful, I aspire to make them entertaining and fun, so that my students have a great time in the lesson. By teaching students from a wide range of learning techniques, I always try to provide a personal approach to each student and adapt to their needs, so that they are able to continuously improve their grammar and vocabulary.

About me
Hi everyone. My name is Valerio and I'm a native Italian speaker who was born and raised in Turin, Italy. I love philosophy, meditation, and everything related to self-development. In my spare time, I also enjoy watching movies, learning languages, and spending time with my friends.
My experience
I have been teaching online for two years, with about 1000 lessons with 60 students.
My price now is promotional here because I am starting and I'd like to increase my number of students and lessons.
On other platforms, my price is about $ 35 - 40 /h.
So do not hesitate to take advantage of my promotion and see you soon! :)
Teaching Approach
I think that human contact is essential when you teach. I need to put students in a comfortable and trusting environment. You have to talk: the most you speak, the best mistakes and you can improve.
I'm patient and friendly: the primary and most important reason for this type of class is to find an opportunity to practice. Therefore, you need someone who understands you, who will not feel embarrassed to talk with, especially if you are a beginner.
The content of the class is flexible: students have different backgrounds and learning styles. So we will discuss and set your learning targets to tailor our lessons to your unique needs.
If you don't have specific preferences, I like you if you speak about what you are interested in: I believe that languages are not an end in themselves. While you talk, I write the corrections, and you can see them live, but you are not interrupted, and you can talk freely and just like talking to a friend.

Hello everyone and a big warm welcome to all the fellow language learners,
My name is Katerina, I’m a native Russian speaker and a foreign language teacher from St Petersburg, Russia. I’ve always been addicted to learning foreign languages, be it English, German, Spanish, Turkish or Arabic, so turning my passion into my job was just a matter of time. I have a Master’s degree in linguistics which taught me to understand the way the mechanism of a language works and thus to help my students see the logics behind the grammar rules. Being a constant language learner enables me to see the process from both sides and to predict the difficulties my students might face. The fact that I’m not a native speaker of English or German means I’ve been through exactly the same language-learning journey you’re about to take, and thanks to my personal experience as a student, I can make this road smooth for you.
I've had students of all ages, from pre-school kids to senior generation, and I feel comfortable working with both beginners and those who are eager to take their learning process to a new level. In my classes I encourage you to talk in the language we’re studying as much as possible, putting every single bit of knowledge into practice right away. If you’re a Russian-learner, I’d be glad to prove it to you that you can absolutely nail my mother-tongue - and yes, you’ll be able to make a small talk in Russian by the end of the first class even if you’re an absolute beginner! We’ll be focusing on the topics that are most relevant to your goals, while discovering the language and getting to know more about the culture of people who speak it.
I offer a short free trial class, for us to give each other a smile and discuss our teaching pattern, in order to ajust it to your goals and make our lessons the bee's knees :) See you soon!

I met Katerina in April 2019. Until this moment, I studied only from a textbook and with audio files. I knew that I needed practice and direction, and I found Katerina's profile on the platform. She works as a teacher for the Russian language, but she also studied German studies at the university, that is, she could help me with my favorite textbook. And so she did. It is very pleasant for me, she looked at the textbook and agreed to work it with me. But that’s not all for a long time. Not only did she prepare additional exercises, but I also wrote a list of what I wanted to develop (dates, numbers, verbs of movement, etc.) and we did all this. It is important for her that the student not only follows the textbooks, but also teaches daily things. So she prepared the material, like videos, polls, on those we worked on. Thank you so much dear teacher.

I am Diane a language tutor that has been helping students of any age and race and I am also a TEFL certified instructor.
Since I am a native Filipino Speaker, I can teach my students conversational Tagalog which includes 1 grammar rule per lesson and pronunciation as well as vocabulary to enable them to communicate with people when they travel to other places or simply with people not from their country. Aside from conversations, we will talk about our culture, cuisine and tourist spots. When I teach I use role play, dialogue, games, Audio/video files and the like which will engage my students well.

Hello,
My name is Zlatko. I believe that learning Bulgarian online with me gives you the best of both worlds: fast progress and enjoyment.Taking on the challenge to learn a new language is impressive. The reasons might be different. Some people give it a go because they just like new things. Others need to learn a new language because they are moving to a country where the language is spoken. Remember that whatever your reason is, it is your motivation that is the key to successful learning.
Who am I and why to pick me:
- online and face-to-face teaching experience: over 15 years helping hundreds of students achieve their language goals
- flexibility: willing to tailor my techniques to both your interests and specific needs
- patience and excellent listening skills
- honesty and collaboration: let's build trust and consider our work as a partnership
- native Bulgarian speaker with oustanding educational background
- sense of humour
Material
All lessons are interlinked to promote better and more memorable learning, with the flexibility to pick out key sections to focus on certain language points. All language is clearly signposted and scaffolded so there is great clarity of progression of learning - students can really feel they are getting somewhere.
In general, my teaching style includes, but is not limited to:
- speaking practice through role-play activities
- stotytelling and discussions
- gap filling excercises
- listening comprehension
- vocabulary development
- accent reduction
How does that grab you? If interested, drop me a line and we will discuss your language goals and expectations.
I OFFER a 15 MINUTE TRIAL LESSON TO DEMONSTRATE WHAT MY TEACHING METHOD LOOKS LIKE.
Hope to see you soon.
Here are a few tips on how to get the most out of every lesson:
1. Review what you covered in your previous lesson.
2. Focus on things you had difficulty with. I will definitely go over them.
3. It is always a great idea to take notes during your lessons. It helps you stay more focused on what you are learning.
4. Feel free to ask me if anything has come up since your last lesson that you want clarification on. Your questions do not have to be prior lesson related, maybe you are just curious about how to say something.
5. Be sure you have completed your homework assignments. If you were not able to complete them, make notes about what stumped you. Were the instructions not clear enough, was the vocabulary beyond your level of comprehension, were the grammar rules too overwhelming, was there too much homework for the time you had planned to spend on it, and so on.
6. Contact me prior to your next lesson if there are any issues or changes you would like to make me aware of so I can have a chance to make changes to your learning plan.
I look forward to seeing you in my lessons.
