You are handsome Explanation: I guess my previous answer under your duplicate question "disappeared into some black hole". :-) I would use handsome if said to a male person, and beautiful or fair if said to a female. In normal speech, though, you would use "du" rather than "ni" for the word "you". Native Swede living in the U.S. |
