Hello Language Lovers! In this episode of Speaking Tongues, I’m thrilled to welcome Katrin, the creator behind Slow Swedish, the #1 Swedish language account on Instagram. As the host of the Learn Swedish and Slow Swedish with Katrin podcasts, she bridges the gap between traditional language learning apps and authentic spoken Swedish.

Katrin shares her language journey from growing up in Sweden with a multicultural background to becoming a passionate advocate for the Swedish language. We talk about her experiences learning languages, including her upcoming adventure into Finnish, and the unique challenges she faces as a native speaker teaching Swedish to learners around the world.

In this episode, we discuss:

🇸🇪 The nuances of Swedish gendered nouns and the complexities of mastering them.

🇸🇪 The significance of cultural identity and how it can shape one's relationship with language.

🇸🇪 The role of social media in language learning and how Katrin has been able to master her content for Instagram.

🇸🇪 The importance of understanding language from a learner's perspective and the joy of teaching.

🇸🇪 Fun Swedish sayings that give us glimpses into Swedish society and a and tongue twister that really makes us regret not asking sooner about how the alphabet is pronounced!

Big thank you to Katrin for sharing your insights and passion for the Swedish language with us.
