Questions & Answers about Är det möjligt att vinna matchen?
This lesson is about '-het' words. How do I change möjligt (possible) into the noun for 'possibility'?
You take the base adjective möjlig and add the suffix -het to make möjlighet. As you've seen in this lesson, words ending in -het are always en words, so 'a possibility' is en möjlighet and 'the possibility' is möjligheten.
Why does möjligt end in a -t here instead of just being möjlig?
The adjective has to agree with the subject of the sentence. Because this sentence uses the neuter 'dummy' subject det (literally 'Is it possible...'), the adjective must take the neuter -t ending to match it.
Do I always need the word att (to) before the verb vinna in a sentence like this?
Yes. When you link a descriptive adjective like möjligt to a following verb, you need the infinitive marker att. It translates perfectly to English here: 'possible to win' becomes möjligt att vinna.
The word matchen comes from English. Does Swedish change the pronunciation?
