Questions & Answers about Gruppen vill se allt i museet.
Why is allt used here instead of alla or all?
In this sentence, allt acts as a standalone pronoun meaning "everything". Because "everything" is treated as a general, neuter concept in Swedish, it takes the neuter form allt. If the group wanted to see "everyone", you would use the plural form alla instead.
Why is there no Swedish word for "to" between vill and se?
Vill (wants) is a modal verb. In Swedish, modal verbs are followed directly by the infinitive form of the next verb without using att (to). So, while in English we say "wants to see", in Swedish it is simply vill se.
What is the base form of museet, and why does the ending look like that?
The base form is ett museum (a museum). Nouns ending in -um borrowed from Latin are a bit irregular in Swedish. When you make them definite (the museum), they drop the -um before adding the definite suffix -et, making it museet rather than "museumet".
Even though Gruppen contains many people, why is the verb just vill?
