Breakdown of Inkomsten kommer före förfallodagen.
Questions & Answers about Inkomsten kommer före förfallodagen.
Because inkomsten is the definite singular form of inkomst, which means income.
In Swedish, the idea of the is often added as an ending instead of being a separate word:
- inkomst = income
- inkomsten = the income
So -en here works like the in English.
Here, kommer före means comes before or occurs before.
Even though kommer literally means comes, Swedish often uses komma in a broader way, not just for physical movement. In this sentence, it describes order in time:
- Inkomsten kommer före förfallodagen = the income arrives / occurs before the due date
So it is about timing, not about someone physically coming somewhere.
