Ordsvansen (Aftonbladet)

About Ordsvansen (Aftonbladet)

Ordsvansen is one of Aftonbladet's mini games, found under aftonbladet.se/minispel. Its mascot is a cartoon cat with a long tail, and the name means the word tail: the game is about chaining letters into a winding tail that spells words.

There is a new challenge every day. You link letters together to find the day's five Swedish words, and the clock runs while you do. When you finish, your time goes on Dagens topplista, the daily top list, so you can compete with family and friends for the best time. A how-to-play guide on the page explains the rules for first-timers.

The same page also offers Sportsvansen, a variant built around the day's sports words with its own top list.

It suits Swedish speakers and learners who want a short, timed word puzzle each day.

How to play Ordsvansen (Aftonbladet)

1. Open Ordsvansen on aftonbladet.se and start the day's game.
2. Chain neighbouring letters together to spell a Swedish word.
3. Find all five of the day's words as quickly as you can.
4. Check your time on Dagens topplista and challenge friends.

Tips

• Look for common Swedish endings such as -ning, -are or -het to spot where a word finishes.
• Once you find one word, the letters left over limit where the others can be.
• Speed matters for the top list, but a wrong path costs more time than a short pause to think.
