• -a(used for fourth-declension nouns)
• -en(used for fifth-declension nouns not ending in -are)
• -ne(archaic,masculine)

-na

1. Marker of definiteness on nouns in the plural (except for nouns of the fourth and some of the fifth declension).

   ‎stolar(“chairs”) + ‎-na → ‎stolarna(“the chairs”)

   ‎lärare(“teachers”) + ‎-na → ‎lärarna(“the teachers”)

• In earlier Swedish, the suffix-na was only used for feminine nouns, while-ne was used for masculine nouns, thus "stenarne" (definite ofstenar) and "kvinnorna" (definite ofkvinnor) were used alongside each other. In attempts to try to produce archaic language, the suffix is sometimes changed to-ne in all positions, producing historically incorrect forms like "kvinnorne".

FromOld Norse-na, fromProto-Germanic*-naną.

-na

1. -en;Used with some adjectives or verbal stems to forminchoative verbs

   ‎trött(“tired”) + ‎-na → ‎tröttna(“to tiren, become tired”)

Inchoative verb

The suffix -na may be analysed as two morphemes (-n (inchoative verb stem) + -a (infinitive)). Traditionally the a's near the ends of the Swedish first declension verb forms have been regarded as part of the suffixes, but nowadays it is more common to see it described as part of the stems of these verbs, since all endings not beginning with ana are extinct or considered heavily archaic.
