However note that there may be a conjunction "att" (in the sense of "that") following right after. The first example is a case in point, which could be interpreted as They want that we help them or, more naturally, They want us to help them. Unlike wanting to do something ("I want to eat") and wanting something to happen ("I want you to eat"), wanting an object is expressed with vilja in combination with ha ("have"). Thus "I want food" is said Jag vill ha mat (not Jag vill mat). Put another way, wanting to have (ha) is not a special case in Swedish, and needs to be specified. Often used with an implied gå (“walk”), åka (“drive”), följa (“follow”), or the like. See ska, which works identically. ===== Conjugation ===== ===== Derived terms ===== skulle vilja === References === “vilja”, in Svensk ordbok [Dictionary of Swedish] (in Swedish) “vilja”, in Svenska Akademiens ordlista [Wordlist of the Swedish Academy] (in Swedish) “vilja”, in Svenska Akademiens ordbok [Dictionary of the Swedish Academy] (in Swedish)
