Learn Swedish: Vi jobbar tillsammans idag. - We are working together today.

Great question! The word tillsammans (together) is an adverb, not an adjective. While adjectives change to match a plural subject like you are learning in this lesson, adverbs describe the action instead of the noun. Because it describes how we jobbar, it never changes its shape.

How do we know if jobbar means work or are working?

Swedish does not have a separate continuous tense like English does. The present tense verb jobbar covers both general facts (we work) and ongoing actions (we are working). You can tell which one it is purely from the context, such as the word idag (today) showing it is happening right now.

Could I move idag to the front to say Today we are working together?

Yes, but you have to swap the subject and the verb! If you start with Idag, the verb must come exactly second. So the sentence becomes Idag jobbar vi tillsammans. This is a very important pattern in Swedish known as the V2 rule.

Is it okay to write i dag as two separate words?

Yes, both idag and i dag are perfectly correct and mean the exact same thing. You will see native speakers use both forms.
