Episode Date: December 8, 2025

I det här avsnittet ska jag läsa en saga för er! Det är den klassiska sagan om Hans och Greta, av bröderna Grimm. Du har säkert hört den förut, så det blir nog inte för svårt att följa med i handlingen. Men även om du inte har hört den förut - oroa dig inte, jag läser långsamt och tydligt, och har förenklat texten litegrann. Transkript Hej där, välkommen till Simples Swedish Podcast. Idag ska jag faktiskt läsa en saga för dig. En saga, ja, det är en berättelse, en berättelse som man oftast läser för barn. Men det kan såklart vara trevligt att lyssna på en saga också som vuxen. Och den här sagan heter Hans och Greta. Och den skrevs av bröderna Grimm. Bröderna Grimm, ja. Så det är en gammal saga. En klassisk saga kan man säga. Så först av allt ska jag såklart tacka några patrons. Det är Eva, Conny, Himbeersommer, Effervescent, Eva, Svitlana, Nicole, Nour, Hungarian by Heart och Bartosz. Tusen tack till er för att ni stödjer den här podden. Okej, så nånting som är viktigt är att inte försöka förstå varje ord. Utan lyssna på helheten. Fokusera på det du förstår. Och försök bara följa med i handlingen. Alltså att följa med i det som händer. Jag ska förklara några ord först men sen när du lyssnar, prova att bara lyssna och försöka följa med i berättelsen. Så första ordet jag ska förklara är ordet ved. Och ved, det är trä som man eldar med. Så man till exempel går ut i skogen, hugger ner ett träd och sen så kan man göra ved av det trädet. Ved för att elda med. Och när man lägger ved och tänder en eld, då kallar man det för en brasa. Så du kan samla lite ved och tända en brasa. En eld alltså. Och man kan då sitta runt den här brasan, värma sig och ha det mysigt. En brasa. Sen har vi en smula. Och en smula är en liten, liten, liten bit av bröd eller en kaka eller liknande. Alltså, man kan till exempel smula sönder bröd. Alltså, man smular det till små, små, små bitar. Och de små, små bitarna kallar vi för smulor. Och vi har en styvmamma. En styvmamma är till exempel om jag har barn och jag gifter mig med en ny kvinna. Och den kvinnan blir som en ny mamma för barnen. Då kallar vi det för en styvmamma. Så det var några ord som kan vara bra att veta innan. Så ved, en brasa, en smula, att tända en brasa och en styvmamma. Okej, är du redo att lyssna på sagan om Hans och Greta? Okej, då börjar jag. Sagan om Hans och Greta I utkanten av en stor skog bodde en gång en fattig vedhuggare med sin fru och sina två barn. Barnen hette Hans och Greta. Pappans jobb gav inte så mycket betalt och det här året var det extra svårt. De hade inte ens råd med mat till hela familjen. En natt sa till sin fru: ”Vad skall det bli av oss? Hur skall vi kunna ge barnen mat, när vi inte ens har till oss själva.” ...för hela transkriptet - klicka här
