sambo m (uncountable)
sambo c
The pronunciation of this word was originally withaccent 2,secondary stress and a long finalvowel, i.e. /²samˌbuː/, which is in line with other compounds with-bo, e.g.öbo(“islander”),stadsbo(“city dweller”). For most speakers, the pronunciation has, however, shifted toaccent 1 with a short final vowel without secondary stress, i.e. /ˈsambʊ/, probably due to the influence from words likehambo(“type of folk dance”) and loanwords ending in-o, which commonly receive accent 1, e.g.mambo(“mambo, type of dance”),sambo(“Sambo”),tango,mango, etc. This accent 1 pronunciation also applies to other words coined withsambo in mind, e.g.särbo(“partner one does not live together with”),mambo(“person who lives with their mother”).
This causes uncertainty in the declension of this word. Whereascommon gender words with a long final /uː/ are regularly pluralized with-r, i.e.sko >skor,öbo >öbor, common gender words with a final /ʊ/ do not have a native pluralization. For this reason, many speakers colloquially treatsambo as a loanword and pluralize the word with a foreign-s plural marker, i.e.sambos, or with a double plural marker-sar, i.e.sambosar.
This pronunciation and declension are usuallyproscribed, and dictionaries likeSAOL andSvensk ordbok recommend using the accent 2 pronunciation with an-r plural in line with words likeöbo, which they likewise recommend for words likesärbo andmambo.
