Today we’re going to do something very important. Vi ska klaga. We’re going to complain… in Swedish.

Not in a dramatic way, but the kind of complaining you hear all the time. Every day. When something is annoying, when you’re tired, when things don’t work the way they should. This is extremely useful, because this is how people actually talk in real life. And honestly, how a lot of people connect and socialize! For better and worse.

This week, we’re diving into a cultural phenomenon that confuses and frustrates some people from other parts of the world. At least when it comes time to interact with Swedes and perhaps try to make plans with them.

We are talking about Swedish politeness and what we call “soft no’s”.

You might have heard people say that Swedes are hard to read, unclear, or even a bit fake. That we don’t say what we mean. I don’t really agree with that, to be honest.
