Practice phone calls in Swedish before your trip
Heading somewhere people answer the phone in Swedish? The calls you make on a trip, like confirming your hotel, booking a taxi or reserving a table, are often harder than talking face to face: no gestures, no menu to point at, and people speak fast. A little practice in Swedish before you go makes those calls much less stressful.
Useful Swedish phrases for phone calls
| English | Swedish |
|---|---|
| Hello (opening the call) | Hej. |
| I'm calling about my reservation. | Jag ringer angående min bokning. |
| Could you speak more slowly, please? | Kan du prata lite långsammare? |
| Could you repeat that, please? | Kan du upprepa det? |
| A table for two at 8 pm, please. | Ett bord för två klockan åtta, tack. |
| Thank you, goodbye. | Tack, hej då. |
Tip: say your name and the date of your booking slowly and early in the call, and keep a pen ready for times, prices and confirmation codes.
