   Number 1: 78. Polite Phrases (That Aren’t Stiff)

   Idag ska vi prata om artighet. Today, we are going to talk about politeness! How do you ask for something politely? How do you say please? What is the difference between ursäkta and förlåt? And how polite do you actually need to be? ‘Cause I have noticed something among people who learn Swedish: you are often way too polite. Or… perhaps polite is the wrong word to use. You’re just very very formal. And I think that’s SFI’s and DuoLingo’s fault. I think they teach very formal language, which makes you sound kinda weird in everyday life here in Sweden.

   Number 2: 76. In the Wild: Emergencies

   Today's topic is one that we all hope we'll never have to use. But if the situation ever does happen, knowing just a few key phrases can make a huge difference. We're talking about emergencies and calling 112, Sweden's emergency number. Of course, emergency operators in Sweden speak English as well. But for the sake of the episode, let's assume you need to speak Swedish. If you want to start speaking Swedish, join us on Discord by signing up for Speak Swedish with Katrin on Patreon.

   Number 3: 48. To Think: Tror, tycker, tänker

   Idag ska vi prata om tre små ord som skapar mycket förvirring. Three tiny words. Huge confusion. We are talking about tror, tycker and tänker. So, the annoying thing is this: None of these words are difficult on their own. But when it is time to choose one yourself, your brain freezes. Let's fix that today!

   Number 4: 47. Ska vs. Kommer att

   Both ska and kommer att are used to talk about the future. So if you use one when the other one would be more natural, people will still understand you. But! Using them incorrectly will throw off the vibe and meaning of what you're saying. It might sound like you're doing something intentionally, on purpose, when you're actually just observing what is going on. Let's dive in.
