What are Swedish numerals?

Swedish numerals refer to the number system used in the Swedish language. In Swedish, the numerals are based on the decimal system, similar to English. The basic numerals in Swedish are as follows:

0 - noll
1 - ett
2 - två
3 - tre
4 - fyra
5 - fem
6 - sex
7 - sju
8 - åtta
9 - nio
10 - tio

After ten, the numerals in Swedish follow a pattern where the tens place is mentioned first, followed by the ones place. For example, 11 is "elva" (ten-one), 12 is "tolv" (ten-two), and so on. The pattern continues until 20, where the word "tjugo" is used.

Some other important numerals in Swedish include:

100 - hundra
1000 - tusen
1,000,000 - en miljon
1,000,000,000 - en miljard

Swedish numerals can be used in various contexts, such as counting, telling time, giving phone numbers, and expressing quantities.
