föredrar
Föredrar is a Swedish verb meaning to prefer or to like better. It expresses that one option or course of action is chosen over another based on taste, value, or criteria. The thing that is preferred is typically the direct object, as in Jag föredrar te framför kaffe, and it can also govern a clause introduced by att to express a preference for doing something, as in Jag föredrar att arbeta hemma.
Grammatical notes: In the present tense, föredrar is used with all subjects: jag föredrar, du föredrar, han/hon
Etymology and usage notes: Föredra originates from the prefix före- meaning before, combined with dra, ‘to draw’
