    Help with Swedish sentences... Och den vuxna är glad över att träffa en klok människa. Jag talar i stället som den vuxna. In the above sentences, what does the "den" mean ? I can't find a rule for why a noun needs to have 'den' in front of it when it has no adjective?

    Don't use fut if you're not writing literature. Nobody says it in conversation or normal writing.

    It's just past vs present. Recognise it by the surrounding words ie mangé will come along with one of the versions of 'to have' like 'a' or 'sont'. Manger will come along with another conjugated verb. Je VEUX manger or je VAIS manger. This is how we tell them apart.

    Why partitive singular and not plural ? Tänä vuonna 350 000 autoilijaa on saanut ylinopeudesta sakon tai huomautuksen. Why is it 350,000 autolilijaa here and not the plural form since we have a specified quantity ?

    In this context it means what nanren says. However it can mean other stuff in different contexts. 'Get down !' means take cover/crouch/hide behind something if someone is say, shooting at you. It can also be an order from a police offer for example which means 'get/lie on the floor'. 'Get down' can also mean a variety of other things. Two blokes who want to fight. One can say to the other 'we gonna get down or what?' meaning 'are we going to fight ?'. Then it can mean to have an intimite sexual encounter with someone. 'Me and Clarissa got down to business if you know what i mean.' Then it can mean to 'start something'. 'Right, well that's lunch over and I have work to do so I'd better get down to it.'

    Sunday was a horse. But it doesn't say he arrived at the hotel on Sunday, just that he left town on Sunday, so it's not really a riddle. Coulda got there Friday and stayed 2 nights.

    It's not weird at all, it's a grammatically correct way of using a word in a different context. I've never heard the word but it makes perfect sense. 'soppies' = 'soppy gifts'. A good comparison - in New Zealand they call 'sun glasses' 'sunnies'. Same idea.

    No I would guess that there are answers labelled under a heading 'A' opposite to where this is written and it's telling you to refer to that. For answers 'opposite' to something it would say 'use words opposite to A'.

    Why the use of 'lahjoittaa' here ? "Presidentti sanoo, että rahaa voi lahjoittaa kahteen kohteeseen." Hi I've noticed in Finnish that sometimes in news articles this construction is used - from the context I get that he is supposed to be using the past version of the verb, but the word used is in the singular. So for example from the surrounding context it's clear this sentence means something like "The president says that money can be donated into two charities." but the word used is 'donates' and not 'donated'. Can anyone explain this grammar to me ? Thanks.
