God kväll
I'm currently reading a series of Swedish short stories. In one story, there are a couple of instances of the use of the definite article before a noun where the latter has not been qualified by an adjective:
1. Där hittade han den köpman han letade efter.
2. Och den trolldryck du vill ha är mycket sällsynt.
Please could someone shed some light as to why this should be apparent in sentences where, as far as I can tell, the definite article could (should ?) be placed at the end of the noun ?
Tack.
Hälsningar
