Hej alla!

Jag heter Kat, och jag bor i Norra Storbritannien, i Norr. *

Jag har börjat att lära mig svenska eftersom min pojkvän är svensk, och hans föraldrar kan inte engelska - inte så bra(,) i alla fall.

Idag så gick min mormor och jag gick ut och handlade/köpte* för en portfölj(,) som vi hade hittat. Den är brun, och jag tycker om den, även om min mormor inte tänker tycker* att den är inte så fin. Vi har också fikat - jag smakade/provade* M&Ss nya latte - "gingerbread latte" - som de introducerade för (i) jul.

Vi ses!

* This sentence is not wrong, but it would be more casual and correct to say "I live in North Britain" than "I live in Britain, in the North".

* "Handla" is a verb for buying/shopping that is mostly used for when you buy groceries or stock/multiple purchases e.g. clothes, shoes e.t.c. "Köpa" would be more correct for your single purchase, and is also more commonly used than handla. You can also use this word for multiple purchases and for buying groceries, just like handla.

* "Tänker" and "tycker" both means "to think". "Tänker" is more like pondering and like the think in "I'm thinking.", and "tycker" is mostly used for stating an opinion or questioning, as in "I think (that)..." or "Do you think (that)...?"

* "Prova" and "smaka" both mean to try, the difference is that smaka means taste while prova can be used for pretty much trying anything from foods to clothes and more. Still, it's not wrong, but "I tried their new latte" is more casual and correct sounding than "I tasted their new latte" as if you had a sample of it rather than buying a drink to try it out :)

Good Job! // Mumu
