Practice Renting an Apartment in 瑞典语
Renting an apartment in a 瑞典语-speaking country combines tour-and-pitch conversation with the legal-document register — and the words you need to negotiate confidently are very different from textbook 瑞典语. This scenario walks through visiting an apartment, asking the right questions about utilities and contracts, negotiating the deposit, and signing the lease. You'll practise the formal register for landlord conversations, the vocabulary for fittings and amenities, and the polite-but-firm language for raising concerns about the price or the condition.
