Editing Gender neutral language in Swedish

{{Template:Gender neutral language}} 
<translate><!--T:1--> Det svenska språket har två grammatiska kön, utrum och neutrum. Svenska är lättare än könsneutralt språk (även kallat könsinklusivt språk) på många andra språk, eftersom dess grammatiska kön är mindre genomgripande än i språk som tyska eller franska. Se huvudartikeln om könsneutralt språk för allmänna skäl att använda neutralt språk, vanliga problem med att använda det och dess användning för icke-binära personer.</translate>

==<translate><!--T:2--> Pronouns</translate>== 
===<translate><!--T:3--> Gender-neutral third-person singular</translate>=== 
<translate><!--T:4--> Swedish’s official gender-neutral pronoun is hen/hen/hens. The Swedish common-inanimate pronoun den/den/dens (equivalent to it/it/its) is also used for gender-neutral language and by some nonbinary people, as well as the non-standard anglicized practice of singular de/dem/deras (they/them/their). Some nonbinary people have also opted for neopronoun such as hin/hin/hins, which is in actuality an obsolete pronoun that means something alike “that one”, but is in modern times pretty much only used in the set phrase “hin håle” (the hard one, the devil). </translate>

===<translate><!--T:19--> Generic pronoun</translate>=== 
<translate><!--T:20--> Swedish’s generic pronoun man/en/ens (one/one/one’s) has been discussed for being androcentric, and some people have opted to use en/en/ens instead to make it gender inclusive. En/en/ens is not just used for gender-inclusivity however, but it is also a regional dialect variation. </translate>
