Questions & Answers about Vi läser enkäten i vilken ni berättar om vistelsen.
Why does this sentence use i vilken instead of the more common word som?
Using a preposition followed by vilken or vilket is a formal way to link ideas, typically used in written Swedish. In everyday speech, you would usually use som and move the preposition to the end of the clause: enkäten som ni berättar om vistelsen i. Alternatively, you could just use där (where) instead of i vilken.
How do I know whether to use vilken or vilket after the preposition here?
It depends on the gender of the noun you are referring back to. In this sentence, it refers back to enkäten, which comes from the en-word en enkät. Because of this, we use vilken. If you were referring to an ett-word, such as ett brev (a letter), you would use i vilket.
Why use berättar om instead of pratar om for "talk about"?
While both can translate to "talk about" in English, berättar om specifically means to recount, describe, or share details about an experience. Since a survey asks you to share your experience, berättar is the natural choice. pratar refers more to the physical act of having a two-way conversation.
