Var är ögongräs

These are var , vart and varifrån. They have to do with movement vs. Var is the simplest of the three. It asks about a static location.

For example:. Var står bilen? In this example, the car is at a location, and it is not moving. Simple enough, right? Vart is different. It is used when you want to ask what direction something or someone is moving in. In other words, there is both movement and specific direction involved. Vart ska vi åka imorgon? As you can see, vart asks about movement to somewhere.

Finally, we have varifrån. Varifrån kommer du? In other words, varifrån asks about movement from somewhere, rather than to somewhere. We can also separate var and ifrån like this:. Var kommer du ifrån? Both forms — the single-word form and the separated form — are used in everyday speech. In formal texts, though, usually varifrån , not separated, is preferred. Vart ligger sjukhuset?

This is typical in, for example, Uppland, the municipality where the city of Uppsala lies. Some other dialects substitute var with vars — this is typical, for example, in Västerbotten, where you can find the city of Umeå. So, varifrån are you? Var do you live? And vart in Sweden do you want to go? Answer in the comments! Build vocabulary, practice pronunciation, and more with Transparent Language Online.
