penna

When talking about something general like "a pen" or "a pencil," you will say en penna. This is because "penna" is a common noun, and in Swedish, common nouns take the indefinite article "en."

If you know which pen or pencil you're referring to, you would use the definite form: pennan (the pen/pencil). This is formed by adding -n to the end of the word.

For more than one pen or pencil, the plural is pennor (pens/pencils). If you want to say "the pens" or "the pencils," you would say pennorna.

Remember that Swedish nouns have different grammatical genders, which affects their articles and how they change in definite and plural forms. "Penna" is an 'en' word, which is important to know for correct usage.

§ What does 'penna' mean?

Swedish Word
penna (noun), CEFR A1
Definition
pen/pencil

Alright, let's talk about the word 'penna'. This is a basic one, and you'll hear it all the time. It means 'pen' or 'pencil' in Swedish. Yes, it's a bit confusing that one word covers both, but you'll get used to it. Context usually makes it clear.

§ 'Penna' at School

If you're in any educational setting in Sweden, you'll hear 'penna' constantly. Teachers, students, everyone uses it. It's one of the first words kids learn. Here are some ways you might encounter it:

  • When a teacher tells students to get ready for an activity.
  • When someone needs to borrow a writing tool.
  • In discussions about school supplies.

Kan jag låna en penna? (Can I borrow a pen/pencil?)

Har du en extra penna? (Do you have an extra pen/pencil?)

Alla studenter behöver en penna och ett papper. (All students need a pen/pencil and a piece of paper.)

§ 'Penna' in the Workplace

Even in our digital world, pens are still used in many workplaces. From signing documents to taking quick notes, 'penna' is a common fixture in Swedish offices and other professional environments.

  • During meetings, for jotting down notes.
  • When filling out forms or paperwork.
  • Simply asking for a writing tool from a colleague.

Skriv under här med din penna. (Sign here with your pen.)

Jag behöver en penna för att fylla i detta formulär. (I need a pen to fill out this form.)

You might also hear about specific types of pens, especially if you work in design or art, but for general office use, 'penna' is usually enough.

§ 'Penna' in the News and Everyday Life

While you won't hear 'penna' as often in breaking news reports unless it's a story about stationery (unlikely!), it can appear in articles about education, art, or even crime scenes (e.g., 'a pen was found'). More commonly, you'll encounter it in everyday conversations, often in stores or at home.

  • When someone is making a shopping list.
  • Asking for a pen at a bank or post office.
  • Children doing homework.

Glöm inte att köpa en ny penna när du handlar. (Don't forget to buy a new pen when you shop.)

Penna can mean both 'pen' and 'pencil' in Swedish. The context usually makes it clear which one is meant. If you need to be specific, you can say bläckpenna for 'ink pen' or blyertspenna for 'pencil'.

자주 하는 실수

A common mistake is to assume penna only means 'pen'. Remember it's a general term. For example, if you say 'Jag behöver en penna' (I need a pen/pencil), it's understood you need something to write with, and it could be either. You wouldn't typically say 'Jag behöver en bläckpenna' unless you specifically need an ink pen.

The word for 'pen' in Swedish is penna.

Swedish nouns don't have grammatical gender in the same way English does. Instead, they use articles. For 'penna', you'll use the 'en' article, so it's en penna. This means it's an 'utrum' noun.

To make 'penna' plural, you add an 'or' to the end. So, one pen is en penna, and multiple pens are pennor.

Yes, penna can indeed refer to both a pen and a pencil. Context usually makes it clear which one you mean.

You can ask 'Do you have a pen?' by saying Har du en penna?

You would say Jag behöver en penna to mean 'I need a pen'.

The definite form of 'penna' (meaning 'the pen') is pennan. You attach the 'an' ending directly to the word.

Certainly! Jag har en röd penna. (I have a red pen.) Or, Kan jag låna din penna? (Can I borrow your pen?)

There's no such thing as 'ett pennan'. 'En penna' means 'a pen'. 'Pennan' means 'the pen'. Swedish nouns are either 'en' words or 'ett' words, but 'penna' is always an 'en' word. The definite form always uses a suffix, not a separate article like 'ett'.

To ask 'Where is my pen?', you say Var är min penna?
