is it denna bok or denna boken and why
- Swedish
I think at least I should use "Denna boken"

Obviously wrong
Explanation is not enough
Written in a language I can't understand
Answer is not related to the question
Other reason
- Swedish
Denna boken!
Denna bok works but it sounds a bit oldschool or authoritative maybe. Denna boken is definately the way to go if you want to sound natural!

"Denna bok" is the correct. Otherwise it's "Den här boken". Won't really matter unless you're writing a paper or something for swedish class that will be graded :)
When speaking everyone says "denna boken, detta huset" etc

South and southwest Sweden uses "denna boken" in colloquial Swedish.
All other parts use "den här boken".
In written Standard Swedish only "denna bok" and "den här boken" are correct.
