Swedish is spoken in Sweden and parts of Finland. The Swedish language was used in official records of Finland until the end of the 1800s.  
To get help with common abbreviations in Swedish records see: [[Sweden Abbreviations in Family History Sources]].


==== Variant Forms of Words  ====
The entire Swedish to English word list is available in a PDF file [[Media:Swedish to English Word List from the FamilySearch Wiki May 2011.pdf|Swedish to English Word List from the FamilySearch Wiki May 2011]].


In Swedish, as in English, the forms of some words will vary according to how they are used in a sentence. ''Who—whose—whom'' or ''marry—marries— married'' are examples of words in English with variant forms. The endings of a word in a document may differ from those in this list. Also, vowels sometimes have diacritical marks indicating a variant spelling of a Swedish word (for example the conjugation of a verb.) Note the following examples:

==== Alphabetical Order  ====
 
Swedish has three additional letters not found in the English alphabet: '''''Å (å), Ä (ä),''''' and '''''Ö (ö)'''''. Alphabetically, these letters come after '''''z'''''. The letter Å (å) was always used in Swedish as a letter of its own (unlike the Aa in Danish and Norwegian). Swedish dictionaries, indexes, the[https://www.familysearch.org/#form=catalog Place Search] of the [[Introduction to the Family History Library Catalog|Family History Library Catalog]], and this word list use the following alphabetical order:
 
a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z å ä ö
 
<br>
 
==== Spelling  ====
Spelling rules were not standardized in earlier centuries. The following spelling variations are common.

==Language Characteristics==
 
Swedish is spoken in Sweden and parts of Finland. The Swedish language was used in official records of Finland until the end of the 1800s.
 
====Variant Forms of Words====
 
In Swedish, as in English, the forms of some words will vary according to how they are used in a sentence. ''Who—whose—whom'' or ''marry—marries— married'' are examples of words in English with variant forms. The endings of a word in a document may differ from those in this list. Also, vowels sometimes have diacritical marks indicating a variant spelling of a Swedish word (for example the conjugation of a verb.) Note the following examples:

|-
|-

|
| upper
''man <br>mannen <br>män <br>männen''
 
|man <br>the man <br>men <br>the men
|<br>
|<br>
|<br>
|<br>
|<br>
|<br>
|
''yrke <br>yrket <br>yrken <br>yrkena''
 
|profession <br>the profession <br>professions <br>the professions
|}
|}

====Alphabetical Order====
 
Swedish has three additional letters not found in the English alphabet: '''''Å (å), Ä (ä),''''' and '''''Ö (ö)'''''. Alphabetically, these letters come after '''Z'''. The letter Å (å) was always used in Swedish as a letter of its own (unlike the Aa in Danish and Norwegian). Before 2006 the letter '''W''' was considered a variation of '''V''' and not a letter. Swedish dictionaries, indexes, the [https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog Place Search] of the [[Introduction to the FamilySearch Catalog|FamilySearch Catalog]], and this word list use the following alphabetical order (after 2006):
 
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z, Å, Ä, Ö


This word list includes only words ''most commonly found in genealogical sources''. For further help, use a Swedish-English dictionary. Several Swedish-English dictionaries are available at the [[Family History Library|Family History Library]]. These are in the Scandinavian collection. Their call numbers begin with 439.7321.  
====Spelling====
 
Spelling rules were not standardized in earlier centuries. The following spelling variations are common.
