it can also be used when you are better than someone else at doing something, for example, "im such a good actor, throw yourself against the wall Alicia"
Most commonly used when sarcastically saying you’re better than someone. Usually someone specific known for something they do. It’s basically the Swedish version of the “hold my beer” meme kinda.
I just love how Swedish sounds so much for some reason??? I feel like it’s a language that uses the tongue more while articulating the words, I don’t know.
When it comes to articulating words, there are a lot of dialectal differences. Overall it's a pretty melodic language, maybe that's why so many people that don't speak it still like the sound of it.
”Kalle Blomkvist, släng dig i väggen. Här kommer jag, Charles-Ingvar Jönsson” I can’t be the only swede that remembers this frase? Little Jönssonligan and the cornflakes kupp
People who say Norwegian and Swedish is the same - try the Norwegian bæsj and the Swedish bärs - not really the same thing even though pronounced the same..
"Rund under fötterna" doesn't mean that you're hangover. It means that you are really drunk. For example "He was really 'rund under fötterna'" a.k.a. "He was really drunk".
No, it means that you are drunk, not that you are somewhat tipsy. If you read my example once more you see that I added really before 'rund under fötterna'.
Nu förutsätter jag att ni är från Sverige eller talar svenska. =D Om du söker uttrycket 'rund under fötterna' på Google hittar du följande förklaring på Wiktionary: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Adjektiv rund under fötterna (idiomatiskt) berusad - Så här höll jag på tills ölbacken var tom och nu var jag dessutom så rund under fötterna att jag tog på mig skjortan och byxorna på avigan och bak och fram, på samma gång. - Han begrep ju precis hur det hela hade gått till, för han hade strax innan mött Jonsson och rått honom att söka sig inomhus eftersom han var så rund under fötterna.

'Tipsy' betyder dessutom 'berusad' så just nu tror jag att vi slåss mot väderkvarnar. =D Med andra ord, uttrycket 'rund under fötterna' kan graderas beroende på hur du använder uttrycket.
Why Swedes are good at English: Swedish is a natural language which means it's the easiest for the tounge to pronounce natually, which gives Swedes the ability to easily adapt other accents using different parts of the mouth/tounge to pronounce words with. And also the Swedish education system involves really high levels of Swedish compared to most other countries.
@@y2k2all There is. Swedish and Danish to a certain extent are the only two languages in which the tounge isn't taught to move a certain way making it incredibly easy to learn any other language and their respective dialects with ease.
I love hearing and seeing celebrities talking in Swedish or any other language that I understand and speak fluently. And it makes it so much funnier to watch the interview
Here are some more: "Jag anar ugglor i mossen" = I'm sensing Owls in the swamp = something is suspicious. "Ge järnet" = Give the iron = try harder "Hon har nog tomtar på loftet" = She has gnomes/santa clauses in the attic = She is not quite alright in her mind. "In i kaklet" = into the glazed tiles = continue until something breaks. "ute och cyklar (på hal is)" = out riding a bike (on slippery ice) = not knowing what they are doing or saying.
I'm currently learning Swedish... but my favorite saying is: Du har skit i det blå skåpet. My niece is Swedish and lives in Stockholm... I'll try to slip in a nollåtta when I visit her next.
The saying about "old cheese". 2:16 It does not literally mean old cheese. Its an metaphor for anything bad. So, "Ge tillbaka for gammal ost" eng: "getting revenge for old cheese" means "I will get you back for the bad thing you did to me".... Also, "Skogstokig" nowadays means eeing really angry (furious).
Larsson is the top 6th most common surname is Sweden (Top 10: Andersson, Johansson, Karlsson, Nilsson, Eriksson, Larsson, Olsson, Persson, Svensson, Gustafsson... There are a lot of -son names in Sweden...) There are a lot of famous Larssons in Sweden, Zara Larsson (singer), Carl Larsson (painter), Henrik Larsson (fotball player) and the writer you mentioned, Stieg Larsson.
Åsa S - Excuse me. But the top 10 isn’t only ”-son” as far as I can remember. The more modern ”wannabe noble” names are up there too. Example: “Eklund” and “Forsberg”.
Hemming There are only -son names on the top 10. Forsberg is on 36th place and Eklund is on 40th. The most common non-son-names (that sounded funny...) are Lindberg (17th), Lindström (21st), Lindqvist (22nd), Lindgren (23rd), Berg (25th), Bergström (26th), Lundberg (27), Lundgren (28), Lind (29), Lundqvist (30).
Hahaha her "stekare" description was good.. oh the typical ones you'll see in the city especially in östermalm going to party n usually have that overclass vibe..
Aina is not swedish, its a arabic slang for prison guards/police. Aina means mirror and they call prison guards aina because they used mirrors to look out of their cell and when they saw guards the would call out aina to warn the other prisoners. It is only used in Sweden because of the many arabic imigrants.
I'm Brazilian. Swedish is really cool. I've been wanting to learn it for ages, but I hear that they all speak English when they notice you have an accent :(
She is so beautiful. I honestly didn’t like the new Tomb Raider movie but I really like her. She has a lot of personality and I love that she’s a SWEDE!!!! She kinda looks like Eliza Dushku
Britain includes England, Wales and Scotland so when people keep saying 'she sounds British', I think you mean she sounds English. It is an important distinction for us English, Welsh and Scottish. P.S. The votes are in and it is confirmed she is the most beautiful woman on the planet.
Mm actually shes not explaining them all right. We have many of the same in Danish. For example walking like the cat around the hot porridge, well, its not a danger that youre circling around, its something that you want to bring up, but you dont quite know how to bring it up in the right way so youre kind of ... afraid of burning yourself but also really wanting to get into it.
She is very charming but.. sounds that shes acting. Have seen that one before, a swedish girl lives in London for like two weeks and start talking like that. (Den gubben går inte jag på / I dont buy it).
Haha, I've lived in stockholm for three years, but I know almost none of those expressions! Maybe I should start making my youtube videos in swedish and try to use this weird slang 😀
I am surprised over the fact that she speaks English really well at the same time that she speaks Swedish really well. You often have to sacrifice one or the other for that.
I picked up a very useful one - in more than one version, so I might have mixed them up - 'Hästarna har flyttet, och hissen går inte (enda?) upp.' Det betyder 'galen'.

Definitely gonna start telling people to throw themselves against the wall
it can also be used when you are better than someone else at doing something, for example, "im such a good actor, throw yourself against the wall Alicia"
You really should just have some ice in the tummy.
Most commonly used when sarcastically saying you’re better than someone. Usually someone specific known for something they do.
It’s basically the Swedish version of the “hold my beer” meme kinda.
I have had so many people wonder wtf I am talking about when I say that outside Sweden, then I realise that it's just a Swedish idiom
Nymeria73 Russians say that too, only in our version it’s kill instead of throw :)
This was great but honestly I would’ve been just as entertained if you took Alicia to ikea and had her pronounce the names of furniture
Lindsay V
Lmao
Lindsay V yes!
Trust me, I'm swedish and I can't understand most of it lmao
@@Majaverymighty kan du inte?
Leo Bergström klart jag inte kan hahah asså vafan är det för namn
Her voice is so soothing
It’s like she’s British but then is Swedish at the same time. My simple Texas brain can’t handle it.
CJayin TV I think she lived in England for a while, so maybe that influenced her accent a bit.
Yup she lived in the UK for a bit of time so it kinda influenced her accent
Which to me basically means she's perfect.
Rebecca Ferguson is another one
something tells me that the english classes in sweden maybe teach an english accent rather than american.
Why do Swedish people always speak so freaking good English?!
Dau7hy because swedes wanna feel a little bitter better than others
sgtmian Indeed. You forgot to mention that we start to learn english at the age of six tho.
Dau7hy
That is not always the case, but as mentioned earlier we start at a young age.
Ya like jazz haha, didn't forget to mention, it was fourth grade when i was in school, but yes, that definitely helps.
The ones that "always speak so good" are only the ones you see on tv, like her.
Doesn't mean that everyone is an educated actor/actress so...
I could listen to her speak Swedish for hours, it's such a melodic language! 2:56

Victor Jörnving same here
@@victorjornving7002 That's because you're used to English as the sound action-heroes make when they're made to be cool and gritty.
Swedish has 3 more vowels than English minus possibly "W".
It’s such a pretty language. I’ve been learning it for fun the last few months and having a blast
OMG she is gorgeous
She is. But Angelina Jolie was a better Lara Croft.
Can we just say, the state of her face is immaculate. It looks so healthy and smooth. Hoooow?
No, "we" cannot just say that.
There's no way she could get any more cute than she already is. Nice catch, mr. Fassbender, I applaude you, sir.
Really? I didnt know that...
”Kalle Blomkvist, släng dig i väggen. Här kommer jag, Charles-Ingvar Jönsson”

Well at least they get looked at, probably what they did it for anyway.
As a Norwegian, I know 95 percent of these

People who say Norwegian and Swedish is the same - try the Norwegian bæsj and the Swedish bärs - not really the same thing even though pronounced the same..

"Rund under fötterna" doesn't mean that you're hangover. It means that you are really drunk. For example "He was really 'rund under fötterna'" a.k.a. "He was really drunk".
Exactly! =D I love languges.
No, it means that you are drunk, not that you are somewhat tipsy. If you read my example once more you see that I added really before 'rund under fötterna'.
carrocaramell no you’re wrong, it does mean that you’re a little tipsy, like @kyleduncan says, and not super drunk.
Nu förutsätter jag att ni är från Sverige eller talar svenska. =D
Om du söker uttrycket 'rund under fötterna' på Google hittar du följande förklaring på Wiktionary:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adjektiv
rund under fötterna
(idiomatiskt) berusad
- Så här höll jag på tills ölbacken var tom och nu var jag dessutom så rund under fötterna att jag tog på mig skjortan och byxorna på avigan och bak och fram, på samma gång.
- Han begrep ju precis hur det hela hade gått till, för han hade strax innan mött Jonsson och rått honom att söka sig inomhus eftersom han var så rund under fötterna.
Vanliga konstruktioner: vara rund under fötterna
Synonymer: rund om foten, onykter, berusad, packad, tankad, full, dragen, på pickalurven, glad i hatten, salongs, salongsberusad, på snusen, på kanelen
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Om du dessutom lägger till 'mycket' eller 'lite' före uttrycket kan du helt klart vara mycket onykter, även om du säger 'Han är mycket rund under fötterna' (om du ser mitt exempel i min första kommentar).
Jag kan tyvärr inte hålla med dig att det _bara_ betyder 'lite salongsberusad', för det är verkligen en begränsad förklaring av vad uttrycket kan betyda. 'Tipsy' betyder dessutom 'berusad' så just nu tror jag att vi slåss mot väderkvarnar. =D Med andra ord, uttrycket 'rund under fötterna' kan graderas beroende på hur du använder uttrycket.
carrocaramell men risken är stor att du känner så när du vaknar upp🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh, we have the same "cat and porridge" phrase in Estonia
Olav Ehala And in Finland
Interesting! But I think it might be a really old saying, so it actually makes sense that it exists in other European languages.
Well since we have been the same country that isn't strange. But to discover the etomolgy for that saying isn't easy. If it isn't impossible.
There is a similar saying in Germany as well
the bibster In all of Germany or only the northen parts.
Alicia always carries with her this vintage aura. :)
Gosh Alicia. You're the best! So down to earth and the best voice.
they should have shown the "skitit i det blåa skåpet" because I always laugh when I hear that one
mirandan She was on Live with Kelly and Ryan and mentioned that phrase there 😆
"Hissen går inte hela vägen upp" and "Inte alla hästar hemma" are my personal favourites.
how about "fläska upp ett brehäng"?
kloggmonkey Hahahaha 😂

My goodness I wish she’d start a TH-cam channel! I’d 100% subscribe her humour is awesome
I know 1 swedish word. Ikea.
I see what you did there, but its not a word, sorry.
It's an acronym ;)
You see what i did there, al though ikea stands for ingvar kamprad elmtaryd agunnaryd.

Actual Swedish people: *pronounces it correctly*
Me: “Bars”

This is now my favorite language along with japanese. love how it sounds. Very interesting.
Christian Triplett I'm biased but I totally agree with you
Oh, if you want to hear how swedish sounds when singing, search for a song called "Strövtåg i hembygden" by Mando Diao it's really beautiful.
Tovis - I second this advice! Should be the song played anytime you enter Sweden! 🇸🇪
Christian Triplett lol Japanese is actually one of the best sounding ones.
