Gift is poison, toxin or married

Skänk is a small table or with an a (skänka) it's gifting

Edit: I just realized Skänk can be used as a verb in old fashioned speech, as in "skänk mig en gåva" which would translate to "gift me a gift"

Yep still learning. Constantly being humbled lol. I wish I could immerse myself completely in the language and culture to really hammer it in, for however long it takes.

Swedish can be rough, but immersion is the best teacher!

This might be too basic for you, but it's based on learning the language as an older teen or adult.
