Questions & Answers about Vi rejser til Sverige i morgen.
The English translation says "are traveling", but isn't rejser just the simple present tense?
Yes! Danish doesn't have an "-ing" form (present continuous) like English. Vi rejser can mean "we travel" or "we are traveling". Also, because the sentence includes a future time (i morgen), the present tense is naturally used to talk about a future plan.
Why is "tomorrow" written as two words (i morgen)?
In Danish, the word for "tomorrow" is a fixed phrase made up of two words, which literally translates to "in morning". Keep in mind that it is always written with a space, unlike the English word.
Why do we use the preposition til before Sverige?
Til is the most common preposition used to show movement or physical direction toward a destination. Whenever you are traveling to a specific country, city, or place, you will usually use til.
Why is Sverige capitalized but i morgen is not?
Just like in English, names of countries like Sverige (Sweden) are proper nouns and must be capitalized. Time expressions like i morgen are just regular words and remain lowercase unless they start a sentence.
