Questions & Answers about Du måste vända till nästa sida.
Why is it sida and not sidan if the translation says "the next page"?
In Swedish, the word nästa (next) always takes a noun in its indefinite form. Even though we say "the next" in English, Swedish just uses nästa plus the basic dictionary form of the word, which is sida.
Does nästa change endings based on the gender or number of the noun?
Why isn't there an att (to) before the verb vända?
Måste (must) is a modal verb. In Swedish, modal verbs are followed directly by the infinitive form of the main verb without att. It works just like English: you say "must turn", not "must to turn".
Can I use vända to mean turning a corner in a car?
Not usually. Vända generally means to turn something over (like a page or a pancake) or to turn around to go back the way you came. If you want to say "turn left or right" to change direction, you should use the verb svänga.
