NEWS ON COURSE UPDATE

Today I happened to start checking the second part of the 8K+ Most Common Swedish Words course against my printout of the Kelly database and have found a couple of things that sehiralti must have accidentally mistranscribed. They are the following:

Level 14 - en massa should be en mässa
Level 33 - en läpp should be en lapp
Level 40 - saknad (as adjective) should be en saknad
Level 45 - en anka should be en änka

I will change the database accordingly and apologise for not having found these errors earlier.

I will check the next fifty levels in due course and make any necessary amendments.

Hi Amanda,
Was looking through the list of words and noticed you had “ett stadium” for “stadium”. I think it should be “phase or stage”. Stadion is stadium.

Thanks very much for coming along and pointing that one out! I came across those words myself the other day while reviewing and I did wonder if there really were TWO almost identical words for “stadium”, but I didn’t think of checking it at the time. I will get to it in the very near future!

I have been checking a few other words, too, the Latin-root words, like “referera” and what have you, because they sometimes have totally different meanings to the ones we have in English. For example, I have just discovered that “referera en match” means to commentate on a match! I had no idea :grin::grin::grin:

I have changed the definition. It now looks like this:

I hope the translations I used from ord.se “Engelska Pro” are accurate :slight_smile:
