Usage notes

  • Today, 1:a and första are used in most situations, with only a few exceptions.
    • Historically, 1:e and förste were used with masculine-gender nouns, which are now part of the common gender in modern Swedish. Some remnants of this usage still exist in contemporary Swedish, especially in formal titles.
  • 1:o (“for the first”)
