I guess you could learn which word has which pitch accent, but can you hear it? Danes for example are deaf to it and can't hear the difference between tomten and tomten. It's the same word to them.

Hmm interesting. For me its one of my favourite parts of swedish. I dont know which dialect does what but maybe skånska has less pitch and thats why the danes cant hear it as well. But once again, just listening to the language as much as possible is the best way to get a feeling for pronounciation. Also danish is just unhinged anyways i dont care what they say about swedish, they should fix their language 💀
