The best way to learn Swedish pronunciation is by listening to a native Swedish speaker.Then copy exactly what they say and the way they say it; mimic it if you like, and have them correct you if you get it quite wrong! This is the best way to get the correct (or almost correct!) pronunciation.Watching Swedish television and films can also be helpful, especially if they are shown with Swedish sub-titles. Of course, you may not understand what they are saying, but if you copy the way they speak, your pronunciation will be perfect!Next we come to reading. Ideally, reading should take place in conjunction with listening and speaking. In this way the visual image of the word(s) will be automatically associated with the sounds of the words.Another way to learn Swedish pronunciation is by getting a learning DVD, or cassette recordings, and carefully following the lessons. For many this is a convenient way to learn.If your preferred learning style is by reading, get a 'Learn Swedish' book. This will show you, not only the Swedish spellings but will also give you 'English equivalent' spellings, and/or show the words written in a phonetic alphabet, such as IPA.One good Swedish Language course, in book + cassette form, is Hugo's "Swedish in Three Months" published by Dorling Kindersley.

Lauren Jean does not mean any particular thing in Swedish. It seems, by all means, to be a name of a person. And the names of persons are expressed the same way in Swedish as they are in English. The major difference (depending on the name) should lie in the pronunciation, which of course, is special for each native country. If we were to use English pronunciation and the Swedish alphabet to spell out how we might utter the name it would be something like this: "Låren (D)jin".
