Sample SACE Stage 2 Swedish (continuers) Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the SACE Stage 2 Swedish (continuers) exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1Complete the Swedish sentence using the V2 (Verb-Second) rule: 'Idag ___ han till skolan.'

A.går

B.han går

C.gå

D.har han gått

Explanation: According to the Swedish V2 rule, when an adverbial such as 'Idag' begins a main clause, the finite verb must take the second position ('går'), forcing subject-verb inversion so the subject ('han') appears third.

2Choose the correctly structured main clause with subject-first word order:

A.Igår hon läste boken.

B.Hon läste boken igår.

C.Hon igår läste boken.

D.Läste hon boken igår.

Explanation: In standard Swedish declarative main clauses beginning with the subject ('Hon'), the verb ('läste') immediately follows in second position, followed by objects and time adverbs.

3Complete the sentence starting with a prepositional phrase: 'På sommaren ___ många turister till Stockholm.'

A.de reser

B.resa

C.reser

D.resande

Explanation: Starting a sentence with a prepositional adverbial phrase ('På sommaren') requires the finite verb ('reser') in the second slot, followed by the subject ('många turister').

4Which verb form correctly completes the question: 'Varför ___ du inte igår?'

A.du kom

B.komma

C.har kommit

D.kom

Explanation: Question words like 'Varför' occupy position one, so the finite preterite verb ('kom') must occupy position two before the subject ('du').

5Complete the compound main clause: 'Han vaknade bitti och ___ en kopp kaffe.'

A.drack

B.han drack

C.dricka

D.drickande

Explanation: The coordinating conjunction 'och' links two main clauses sharing the same subject ('Han'); the second clause directly takes the past tense finite verb ('drack').

6Complete the subordinate clause: 'När hon ___ hem, sov barnen redan.'

A.kom hon

B.kom

C.skulle komma

D.komma

Explanation: In a subordinate clause introduced by 'När', standard word order puts the subjunction ('När'), subject ('hon'), and finite verb ('kom') in sequence without inversion.

7According to the BIFF rule ('i Bisotts Står Inte Före Finita verbet'), which subordinate clause is correct?

A.Han sa att han kunde inte komma till festen.

B.Han sa inte att kunde han komma till festen.

C.Han sa att han inte kunde komma till festen.

D.Han sa att kunde han inte komma till festen.

Explanation: The BIFF rule states that sentence adverbs like 'inte' must precede the finite verb ('kunde') in subordinate clauses introduced by subjunctions like 'att'.

8Contrast main and subordinate clause negation placement: 'Han kommer inte idag' vs '...eftersom han ___.'

A.kommer inte idag

B.kommer idag inte

C.idag inte kommer

D.inte kommer idag

Explanation: In main clauses, negation follows the finite verb ('kommer inte'). In subordinate clauses introduced by 'eftersom', negation precedes the finite verb ('inte kommer').

9Complete the main clause with fronted object complement: 'Boken ___ jag igår på biblioteket.'

A.läste

B.jag läste

C.att läsa

D.har läst jag

Explanation: Fronting the direct object 'Boken' into position one triggers V2 inversion, placing the verb 'läste' in position two, followed by the subject 'jag'.

10Choose the correct coordinating conjunction after a negative statement: 'Han är inte svensk, ___ norsk.'

A.men

B.utan

C.eftersom

D.för

Explanation: When correcting a negative statement ('inte svensk'), Swedish uses 'utan' (but rather) instead of 'men'.
