Lesson#1
In Swedish, spatial adverbs come in three distinct groups: where you are, where you are going, and where you come from. You already know words for static location like 'här' and movement towards like 'hit'. This deck focuses on the third group: adverbs of origin ending in 'ifrån', which describe movement away from a place.
Lesson#2
To say 'from here', Swedish uses the adverb 'härifrån'. It describes movement or distance originating from where you are.
Quiz#3
How do you say 'from here' in Swedish?

härifrån

Lesson#4
To ask about distance from your current location, use the question frame 'Hur långt är det härifrån till', followed by a destination. For example, 'Hur långt är det härifrån till stationen?' means 'How far is it from here to the station?'.
Quiz#5
Translate into Swedish: 'How far is it from here to the station?'

Hur långt är det härifrån till stationen?

Lesson#6
You also use 'härifrån' with verbs of motion to talk about leaving a place. For example, 'Vi måste gå härifrån nu' means 'We have to leave from here now'.
