Pictures, Coloring, Quizzes and more…

The best Swedish learning resource you’ll ever own!

Learning a new language is a new way of meeting new people, opening doors in your professional career and attracting fresh opportunities when traveling around the world, as you may know. However, some languages – like Swedish – aren’t easy to learn due to a serious lack of resources and materials. Because of this, we have created the Swedish Picture Dictionary Coloring Book.

Additionally, past experiences with language learning may have felt complicated and even, well, boring… but we’re about to change that! We are establishing an entirely new method and concept behind learning Swedish. A method based on fun.

Say hello to the Swedish Picture Dictionary Coloring Book, the book that will change Swedish learning forever.

In this amazing book, you will find:

  • Over 50 different, detailed and beautiful full-size illustrations for you to learn while coloring them! Each of these 50 illustrations contains up to 20 items, by the way – that’s almost 1,000 images for you to color!
  • Ever wanted to know what a badger is called in Swedish? Maybe you need to know the word for ‘weightlifting’ or ‘mistletoe’… No worries! This book has dozens of different categories to help you build your vocabulary.
  • Challenging quizzes found every few sections will allow you to develop your Swedish skills even further; if you don’t know the answers, we’ve provided an Answer Key at the end!
  • Just to get started, we’ve added an in-depth basic Swedish guide at the beginning, including pronunciation of those complex Swedish sounds you may be aware of, spelling, word order and vocabulary, among other crucial tools.

This book will transform Swedish learning for good – no more suffering trying to find proper Swedish learning material, it’s time to learn while having fun!

5.0 out of 5 stars fun way to improve your vocabulary

H.C. · 6 April 2022

I bought this for my son (who is a big fan of anything Swedish) to help him improve his vocabulary, however I am enjoying this too- it is divided into different topics family, human body, seasons, house, sports and there are also some grammar sections too. I like the support to pronounce the word. There are quizzes to check knowledge, example sentences and some reading/comprehension activities. There is a useful section at the start of the book on the Swedish alphabet and pronunciation of letters, nouns endings and verb tenses. A great resource.

Fun to use when learning or teaching a child the language.

4.0 out of 5 stars Page 34-35 incorrect

C. · 30 June 2024

Overall it’s a fabulous concept which I hope will encourage my child to want to learn more of her second language. However page 34-35 is incorrect. Haven’t checked the entire book though, just happened to notice this page first.

An excellent way of learning so many new words. Not dry and boring!

5.0 out of 5 stars fun & instructive

This was a super fun resource for language learning. It wasn't just me who enjoyed learning new words, but my children joined in too, helped colour the drawings and as a 'side effect' they learned a few new words in Swedish.

Paper quality could be improved it is quite thin also would be helpful if words were underneath picture. Still a fun language learning resource.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing world view and quality

I have been learning Swedish (slowly!) using Duolingo, and decided that it was time I supplemented that with some other resources. I have therefore bought a comprehensive textbook, but also this colouring book for some light relief. Unfortunately, I'm really disappointed with the colouring book and wouldn't recommend it.PROS:* It starts with a written section on the basics of the Swedish language, including the alphabet and some pronunciation guides. While this can't replace hearing the language, it's actually nicely written and I found it helpful.* The vocabulary lists also come with a phonetic pronunciation of each word.* Each vocabulary list also comes with a few example phrases.* There are a few quizzes that add another element to the book.CONS:* Sweden is a pretty progressive country, so I was really surprised to see the version of the world that these pictures portray. All the people appear to be white, apart from a single Buddhist monk (being used to demonstrate the concept of tolerance - though it's a Christian minister offering tolerance to the monk rather than the other way around). Gender roles are heavily reinforced. The page about professions portrays males in the roles of an animal trainer, fireman, conductor, engineer, judge, police officer, chef, professor, pilot, and businessman. There's an astronaut of unknown gender, but the sole female worker is a ballet dancer. On the two pages about sports, there appear to be 28 men and 7 women (plus a few images of unknown gender). Out of 13 musicians, only the harp player is a woman. The page on technology is all men, though the page on science does have a scientist who appears to be a woman. The page about the hospital features a male doctor and a female nurse. There is a female security guard and a female mechanic on later pages, but both look like they started out as men and have had ponytails added at a later stage. When it comes to life events, women get to fall in love, get married, have a baby, and celebrate a children's party. However, the men also get to start school, make friends, celebrate their own birthday, graduate, start university, get a job, become an entrepreneur, travel around the world, and retire (they get to die as well!) When it comes to verbs, the women talk, receive gifts, buy things, kiss, hug, clean, find, take, smile, and receive help. Needless to say, the men get to do more, including eating and drinking, reading and writing, fixing, and thinking! Most of the women portrayed throughout the book are young, slim, and wearing dresses/skirts. There are no same-gender couples. The only portrayals of disability are one person in a wheelchair being used to illustrate the vocabulary for Paralympic sport and a handful of elderly people with walking sticks. Interestingly, where the word for "cross" is translated, the picture is of a crucifix rather than a generic cross and the page on values prominently features a Christian minister, so I do wonder if the book has been written by individuals with a heavy right-leaning Christian bias.* The quality of the drawings is very variable. Some are clearly by better artists than others. None of the (rather charming) pictures on the cover are in the book, and the style of the pictures inside the book are quite different to the ones on the cover. Given there's no option to view the actual pages in the Look Inside preview, I think this is quite misleading.* The quality of the paper is poor and definitely not suitable for a colouring book. Once you colour a page, it deforms the vocabulary list on the next page, and lifts ink from the couple of pages after that.* The pages are in an odd order. The colouring section starts with a page on emotions, and then moves to a family tree. These are some of the most boring pictures in the book and also some of the more complex words and concepts to learn.* The vocabulary lists are all in portrait format on one side of the double-page spread. However, quite a few of the picture pages are in landscape format. That makes it difficult to refer back and forth between the two, especially for pages like the family tree.* Whoever designed the pages doesn't appear to have any concept of what makes a good colouring book. many of the pictures include huge swathes of homogenous space that would be hugely monotonous to colour in.* At least one of the artists has no understanding whatsoever of shadows and light sources as they seem to go in all different directions.Overall, I think this a frustrating book that doesn't function well as a colouring book and has a very narrow 1950s world-view. I would not recommend it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not the best choice if important words, too much colouring

D.S. · 11 June 2022

Not that great. Not the most important words and too much if the book is just colouring

Very interesting book…

You’ll love this basic vocabulary book. It shows the Swedish words and they meanings in English. This book is intended to be a coloring book as well. Easy to read and fun to have. My grandmother spoke English with a Swedish brogg. She also used SWINGLISH that I learned from her as a child. We have more fun repeating the words and stories with that added to our memory. Practice words that are familiar, and reade the vocabulary thinking you’re really going to study. I like the book. It’s fun remembering.

Lots of details of Sweden

We had a Trivia game at our last meeting. All questions came out of this hood. Very helpful.

Easy to read and very useful

C.H.K. · 10 April 2022

I found it very useful with short grammar and specially pronunciation guiding rules. And then the mean part which for me the methodology of using pictures makes easier to understand (bildordbok). I haven't explored the "coloring activities" as much, but pictures besides the vocabulary list (with the pronunciation) was very useful and effective for me, complimented by the quizzes.

Not much grammar, but that can come later.

S.F. · 1 December 2024

My short attention span is my biggest obstacle to any kind of study, but looking at the pictures keeps me from getting distracted. This is basically vocabulary, but as long as you know that you should be able to have fun and learn.
