Questions & Answers about Alla i gruppen förstår informationen.
Why does this sentence use alla instead of all or allt?
When used on its own as a pronoun, alla translates to "everyone" or "all the people". If you wanted to say "everything", you would use allt.
In English, "everyone" is singular. Is alla singular or plural?
Alla is grammatically plural in Swedish (it literally means "all"). Because Swedish verbs like förstår don't change based on who is doing the action, you don't have to worry about verb agreement here. But if you added an adjective to alla, it would need the plural ending.
Why do the words gruppen and informationen both end in -en?
They are in the definite form, meaning they include "the" (the group, the information). Both grupp and information are en-words, so you attach -en to the end of the word to make them definite.
Why does förstår just end in -r instead of -ar or -er?
