take me and the ship

One Swenglish structure I've failed at correcting for more than a year is the taunt
-You can't take me.

What he means is clearly the taunting dare:
-You can't get me.

Like in the words of Mik Jagger: "And I try, and I try and I try, and I try"

Today, however, a unique event occurred. For once, I corrected X's Swedish. Swedish has two "genders" for its nouns. They either are an "Ett" or an "En" verb. That's the form of both the indefinite and definite articles. There's no rhyme or reason to remember which one is which.

Skepp (ship) is "ett". However, X was playing with a friend's Lego ship calling it "skeppen" when it should be "skeppet".

I felt so scholarly.
