Questions & Answers about Du kommer att prata ännu tydligare efter kursen.
Why does this sentence use kommer att prata instead of ska prata to mean "will speak"?
In Swedish, ska is usually used when someone has a direct intention or plan (like "I am going to"). On the other hand, kommer att is used for predictions about the future that are outside of your direct control. Since the speaker is predicting the natural result of taking the course, kommer att is the best choice here.
What is the role of ännu in this sentence? Could I use mer instead?
The word ännu translates to "even" and is used to intensify a comparative word, just like in the English phrase "even more clearly". You cannot use mer (more) here because tydligare already means "more clearly". Saying mer tydligare would be grammatically incorrect, like saying "more more clearly" in English.
How is the word tydligare formed?
It comes from the adjective tydlig, which means "clear". When used as an adverb to describe how someone speaks, it becomes tydligt (clearly). To make it a comparative (more clearly), you add the suffix -are, resulting in tydligare. Swedish often uses this ending instead of adding a separate word for "more".
Do Swedish speakers pronounce kommer att exactly as it is written in everyday conversation?
In formal speech or careful reading, yes. However, in casual everyday spoken Swedish, kommer att is almost always shortened. You will usually hear it pronounced as kommer å, or the word att might be dropped entirely so it sounds like kommer prata.
