* '''Förförälder.''' Neutral, nonstandard but will be understood. Means grandparent.
The adjective conjugation for things in the singular definite form has historically had two versions in Swedish, the a-form (Feminine: den glad<u>a</u> flickan. Neuter: det glad<u>a</u> barnet) and the e-form (Masculine: den glad<u>e</u> pojken). The e-form is not frequently used today, but it is still worth mentioning that the a-form is the standard in modern Swedish as the masculine and feminine grammatical genders are no longer separated, and by using only the a-form, the language becomes more gender-neutral and continuous.
