A small, home-made Swedish course
MySvenska follows the Kisse family, three cats who move from Vietnam to Stockholm and learn Swedish one real situation at a time: the first knock on the door, the first fika, the first trip to ICA.
The grammar is taught properly, through the story. Colours always mean the same thing: blue for en-words, red for ett-words, yellow for verbs.

A personal project
- Personal and noncommercial. MySvenska is made by one family in its free time. It is free, with no ads, no paid plans and nothing for sale.
- Original content. The story, the characters, the drawings, the lessons, the grammar notes and the exercises are all written for MySvenska.
- Made with help from AI. The lessons, drawings and code were written with an AI assistant (Claude), and the voices are AI-generated. We check every chapter before it goes live, but if something sounds off, tell us.
- Tools it builds on: the voices are made with Google’s Gemini text-to-speech, the speaking check uses KB-Whisper from KBLab (the National Library of Sweden), the icons come from Lucide, and the fonts from Google Fonts.
- Real places, no ties. ICA, IKEA, SL, SMHI, 1177 and other Swedish shops and services appear because learners meet them in everyday life. MySvenska is not connected to or endorsed by any of them.
Privacy
- No name needed. You can learn without telling us who you are. After your first finished lesson, this device can get an anonymous account with no name and no email. It backs up your progress and lets us count how many people are learning and how many lessons they finish. That is all we measure, and you can turn it off on the account page. With an account, your email, nickname, theme and progress are saved to the account so they follow you to other devices, and you can delete the account any time. If you sign in with Google, Google also passes on your name and profile picture. They are stored with the account, and MySvenska does not use them.
- Cookies. MySvenska sets no cookies of its own. Our host sets one technical cookie that protects the site against bots. Your progress, your settings and your sign-in are kept in your browser's storage on this device.
- No ads and no outside trackers. We count learners and finished lessons ourselves, from the anonymous accounts.
- Your voice never leaves your device. The microphone is only on when you tap to speak, and your recording is never uploaded. If you turn on automatic checking, a Swedish speech model (Whisper, about 145 MB) downloads once from public servers (jsDelivr and Hugging Face), is kept in your browser, and checks your speech there. Without it, Chrome checks on your device only if it has Swedish installed; otherwise you listen back and judge yourself.
- The page fonts are served from this site, so no font service sees your visit.
- Signing in with Google. Google's window says you are continuing to pvvxhunruojatfyxucea.supabase.co. That is expected. It is the address of Supabase, the service that stores MySvenska accounts. Google passes on your email address, name and picture, never your password.
- Who is responsible: MySvenska is run by MC family. To see or delete your data, or to ask about it, email mysvenska.app@gmail.com.
- How long we keep it. Until you delete it. You can delete a named account on the account page, and an anonymous backup by turning backup off there.
- Your rights. You can ask to see, correct or delete what we hold about you: email us at the address above.
- Children. You can learn without an account at any age. If you are under 13, please do not make a named account without a parent or guardian.
- Services we use: Lovable and Cloudflare host the site, and Supabase stores accounts and their progress. When an account is made or a code is sent, a Cloudflare check (Turnstile) confirms you are not a bot. If you sign in with Google, Google confirms who you are. If you turn on speech checking, the speech model downloads from jsDelivr and Hugging Face.
