I'm writing the biography of a man who was born and died in Sweden.  I know that "Sverige" is how you write "Sweden", but how do you write the word "Swedish?"

thank you.  How about the word "Swedes?"
You can try to find out on yourself, because you better know, what do you mean: a Swedisch person, or vegetables …

Google Translate: svensk (for the person from Sweden)
LOL! I wonder if most people know that...
Swedes = Svenskar
Swede = Svensk

He was Swedish = Han var svensk
Both his parents were Swedish = Båda hans föräldrar var svenska
They spoke Swedish = De talade svenska

Most Swedes speak Swedish = De flesta svenskar talar svenska

En svensk tiger = A Swedish tiger / A Swede keeps his mouth shut
Thank you all for your help.  I am new to the Nordic Project and I don't speak or write in Svenska but I am adding notables from the Nordic countries.
