| Cultural Insight |
| Becky: Now it's time for a quick cultural insight. |
| Carl: When it comes to candy in Sweden, there are many unique types that are exclusive to the country. For example, saltlakrits or “salty liquorice” is a salty candy with no added sugar and is one of the most popular sweets in Sweden. You should try it! Perhaps you'll find a new delicacy you enjoy, or will at the very least have a food experience you'll never forget. |

HideHi Listeners, do you like studying?
Hej Allison,
"Tycker om" och "gillar" (like) betyder samma sak! 😁 Båda används mycket, så det är bra att känna till båda dessa uttryck. Så "Jag tycker om sötsaker" betyder samma sak som "Jag gillar sötsaker" (I like sweets).
("Tycker om" and "gillar" (like) means the same thing! Both are used a lot, so it is good to know of both of these expressions. So "Jag tycker om sötsaker" means the same thing as "Jag gillar sötsaker" (I like sweets).)

Varför inte du säga, Jag tycker om sötsaker istället Jag gillar sötsaker?
Hej Cisco,
Det låter jättegott. Jag saknar svenska kanelbullar och chokladbollar! (That sounds delicious. I miss Swedish cinnamon buns and chocolate balls.) 😄

Hej Adolf,
Förra veckan köpte jag dammsugare och de var läckra.
(Last week i purchased vacuum cleaners and they were delicious.)
Jag gillade också chokladbollarna.
(I also liked the chocolate balls.)
Skål,
(Cheers,)
Cisco
Hej Adolf,
Du kan säga "Jag studerar hela tiden." (You can say "I study all the time.") :innocent:
