I am a teacher of Swedish as a second language. I have “Swedish music” as a new feature in my Friday afternoon classes for complete beginner learners. Some of them already understand a bit of Swedish but not all of them.
Soon they will be able to understand more but I’m thinking that right now it’s good to provide some translations of a few phrases when possible. (Some but not all of them speak English.)
So, I’m here asking for help from native or fluent speakers. (Because I do NOT trust Google Translate to get it right!) I already got some translations but I get new students once a months and sometimes this means new languages. Right now I would like a translation to the following languages: Somali, Thai, Russian.
I would like a translation of these phrases:
A famous Swedish song.
The Swedish anthem.
A lovesong.
A song for children.
A folk song.
An old song.
A sad song.
It was written by....
Thank you so much for your help!
