			'''''''På morgonen äter jag frukost.'''''''

			'''"In the morning, I eat breakfast."'''
			----ln this lesson, we'll learn to talk about our daily routine. Talking about our daily routine can, of course, be done in numerous ways, but in this lesson, we'll learn how to do this with the help of time references such as ''på morgonen'' ("in the morning"), ''på eftermiddagen'' ("in the afternoon"), and ''på kvällen'' ("in the evening"), together with verbs that describe the activity that is part of your daily routine. To start with, we'll review some of the sentences that appear in this lesson's dialogue to get a sense of how these types of sentences can be constructed. Let's have a look.
			# ''På morgonen äter jag frukost.'' "In the morning, I eat breakfast."
			# ''På eftermiddagen tar jag ofta en promenad.'' "In the afternoon, I go for a walk."
			# ''På kvällen träffar jag vänner.'' "In the evening, I meet friends."
			Before we look more closely at how to create these types of sentences, there's something that needs to be mentioned about the word order. Simple statements in Swedish such as ''Jag är trött'' ("I'm tired.") often follow a straight word order, which means that the sentence starts off with the subject of the sentence, followed by the first verb. The sentences above, however, follow an inverted word order because the sentence is introduced by a time reference such as ''på morgonen'' ("in the morning") or ''på kvällen'' ("in the evening").

			An inverted word order, more specifically, means that the first verb is placed after the time reference, followed by the subject. Let's illustrate this with two examples in which the first sentence follows a straight word order and the second sentence follows an inverted word order.

			For example:
			# ''Jag äter frukost.'' "I eat breakfast."
			# ''På morgonen äter jag frukost.'' "In the morning, I eat breakfast."
			Now that we have a better understanding of what kind of word order the sentences we're creating will follow, we'll look more closely at the actual sentences that describe our daily routine. In order to make it more comprehensive, we'll break the sentence down into two parts and examine them separately. First off, we'll start with the first part of the sentence that holds the time reference. Here are the three time references in Swedish with their English translations.

			'''Swedish''' / '''English'''

			''på morgonen'' / "in the morning"

			''på eftermiddagen'' / "in the afternoon"

			''på kvällen'' / "in the evening"

			As you might have noticed, the preposition used in these time references is the Swedish preposition ''på''. ''På'' is generally translated as "on," but the way in which it's used here instead corresponds to the English "in."

			Now that we know how to start our sentence, we'll focus more on the second part of the sentence--the part that describes the actual routine. In order to be able to talk about routines, we'll start by introducing some verbs that describe common activities. All of these verbs will be presented in their present tense, since this is the tense that can be used when talking about an activity that happens on a regular basis.

			'''Swedish''' / '''English'''

			''pluggar'' / "study"

			''tränar'' / "work out"

			''fikar'' / "go for coffee"

			The second part of the sentence, in its most basic form, consists of two words: the verb describing the activity and the pronoun or a name of a person who performs the activity. What pronoun you want to use when creating these types of sentences depends on if you want to talk about your daily routine or someone else's daily routine. In this lesson, we'll only use the personal pronoun ''jag'' ("I") to make things a bit less complicated, which means that you'll learn to talk about your own daily routine. The second part of the sentence starts off with the verb and is then followed by the subject of the sentence, namely, the pronun ''jag'' ("I"), since the sentence has an inverted word order. Let's look at some examples.

			For example:
			# ''...pluggar jag.''"...I study."
			# ''...fikar jag.'' "...I go for a coffee."
			# ''...tränar jag.'' "...I work out."
			Now let's form full sentences by putting the time reference together with the second part of the sentence that describes the activity.

			For example:
			# ''På morgonen pluggar jag.'' "In the morning, I study."
			# ''På eftermiddagen fikar jag.'' "In the afternoon, I go for a coffee."
			# ''På kvällen tränar jag.'' "In the evening, I work out."
