You can be the best at something as long as you don't brag, but what you've done can speak for itself.

#1: The thing about not viewing yourself as better than others is deeply rooted in ancient Norse culture and beliefs (which Swedish culture evolved from). Wisdom and hospitality were big things. Thinking that you were smarter or stronger than others resulted in you dying or not contributing to society because you never improved or learned from people more skilled than you. There will always be people smarter or stronger than you in some aspect. Instead of viewing yourself as perfect or superior, be humble and learn from others, regardless of who they are. This applies to everyone from all walks of life. #3: This is due to people not understanding your intentions. Unlike in the US, Scandinavians usually have a higher degree of "stranger danger". To them, you are a stranger invading their personal space. In the US, we don't see this as an issue since people do it all the time. #4: This corelates with #3. If you are a stranger to them, staring makes you look like a creep. Imagine a random person staring at you from across the road... it gives off psychopath vibes.

you said it 100% right

@peppermintcrush5794 6 месяцев назад

If you go on an almost empty bus and sit down next to the one person there, you will be considered weird and scary for not respecting that person's personal space. I would be very uncomfortable if a stranger did that!

@Tove_Ishockey 5 месяцев назад

same if a stranger did that it would creep me the f*** out

@janneholm7071 6 месяцев назад

People do not curse you out for bad behavior in Sweden, most of the time 😉 but the look of shame: this you get 😊

@peppermintcrush5794 6 месяцев назад

Many of the rules are based on respecting other's personal space and time.

@HenrikJansson78 6 месяцев назад

Except for the hug part it was pretty spot on. Some people hug, some don't, there's definately no "rule" about that. But don't be surprised if someone goes in for a hug. About the stare/no eye contact. As long as it's from a reasonable distance, there is no problem with looking. But when you get close enough to be able to have real eye contact, then you should watch out. :) Also. Get used to the language. We are no prudes over here. :)

@frida507 6 месяцев назад

To look around casually is normal but if you look directly at a stranger and keep it for a while it would seem either confrontational or flirting depending on gender, if you have no reason like asking for directions, "you dropped your glove" etc. I mean, if a young male stares directly at another young male on the street, and they're not gay, wouldn't that be taken as confrontational in the US? (If there is no reason, like asking for something.)

@Razzlion 6 месяцев назад

@@frida507 Considering that exact thing is what led to a shootout in a crowded street not even a month ago i would say 100% it would be seen as confrontational.

@olsa76 6 месяцев назад

If you are going to Sweden for the northern lights, you should go to northern Sweden to a smaller place without light pollution. No one runs on escalators in small villages in northern Sweden. There are no escalators there, but if there were, the people who live there would not be in such a hurry as people are in the bigger cities.

Im surprised he didn't say anything about No shoes inside someone's home. It doesn't matter what season it is - always take them of unless the host/hostess says otherwise. You guys have such good vibes! You sure would've survived over here. 😊

@SuperSupermanpunch 6 месяцев назад

Jag är svensk! Of course we want to sit alone. But not sitting next to someone on public transport is not true 😂😂

@Eyrenni 5 месяцев назад

A problem with escalators here is that... some places, especially underground trains and other public transportation stations, do not have stairs. There are JUST escalators. So they are the stairs, too. And, I guess this applies to the "do not talk loudly in public", it's in public. You share the public space so don't hog it by blocking the way or making others uncomfortable (whether there are stairs or not). Again, the law that you are not better than others, so share the space equally.

@AbsolutePernilla 6 месяцев назад

Handshake/hug only applies to informal friends, not formal meetings. Formal goodbyes are handshakes.

@stemid85 5 месяцев назад

The escalator thing is a commuter thing. A lot more people commute with public transport here. And it's actually a written rule in some cases, like in the Copenhagen airport they have it written on the escalator. And I believe in the Malmö central station too.

@AbsolutePernilla 6 месяцев назад

Being quiet in cinemas means no crinkling papers, noisy eating or slurping, private conversations, commenting or worse: analyzing what's happening on screen. I love American cinema goers esp when they cheer and laugh at the scenes. Much more enjoyable. In Sweden sometimes even laughter can be stifled.

@MewDenise 5 месяцев назад

A kid can grow up spoiled if they are constantly told they are "the most special kid in the universe" when they clearly aren't. It's all about being humble i think.

@basicscandimom1220 6 месяцев назад

Don’t worry about breaking all the rules - you guys seem like so much fun I think you could get away with a lot 😊 We Danes just love it when ppl are interested in our culture. If you ever come to Copenhagen I can be your guide. We could talk loud together

@TheDemouchetsREACT 6 месяцев назад

Let’s keep in touch! We don’t know when that trip will be but seeing the Northern Lights is on our bucket list.

@MewDenise 5 месяцев назад

We swedes don't appreciate anyone saying "Yeah, I earn 1 million every hour. I just bought my 3rd car". I remember when a politician got the front page cause he bought his son an apartment in Stockholm when most people are angry about the market. He got dragged.

@AbsolutePernilla 6 месяцев назад

Ending a phone call to a friend: "ha det" (short for ha det bra which basically means be well/have a good time) "vi ses/hörs" (see you later/talk to you later) Ending a call to employer/business, etc: "hej då" (good bye) Ending a call to a loved one: "puss puss" (kiss kiss) , "hej då/vi ses, älskling" (bye/cu babe/darling/honey) , "älskar dig" (love you)

@Eyrenni 5 месяцев назад

Also good to note for those not from Sweden is that the "loved one" doesn't have to be a romantic partner. I end calls to family members with a "love you" at times. And älskling can be used for a lot of others as well. "Älskade vän" (beloved friend) can be used sarcastically to others in the sense of "alright, my dear idiot", or in a wholly serious manner to, for instance, children. Especially children you're related to. Älskling is great for being able to be very all encompassing; gender doesn't matter, nor does age. In some cases it'd be translated to sweetheart, in others to babe or similar, as you noted, OP.

So, jantelagen is named after a village in Denmark and the ten rules basically tell you to understand how insignificant and unimpressive you are. Nowadays, it’s more of a social code of conduct, meaning we do not brag, we don’t think we are better than anyone else and we stay humble in every single way. That doesn’t mean you can’t be proud of your achievements, but you can’t shove it in people’s faces. We have athletes and entrepreneurs who are objectively the absolute best in their field, but you will never hear them say it makes them a better person or more important. The exception is Zlatan, but he is the first generation in his family to be born in Sweden so he doesn’t have jante in his genes 😊 In general, apart from sports, we are relatively non-competitive. We like to do well, but more to feel good about ourselves than to make anyone else feel bad, or to gloat. Does this make sense? Also, I saw someone compare it to the tall poppy syndrome, but it’s not quite the same. If you sit next to me on the bus, a conversation is the least of my worries. You are weird, intoxicated, mentally unstable or trying to get something from me. I do not hug anyone apart from close friends and family. The escalator thing applies to stations, airports, places where people are on the move, in a hurry, moving with a time frame. In a department store for example, it’s not the same. You can laugh, cry, scream or react to the movie but don’t speak, sing, shout or, god forbid, take a phone call.

Jantelagen is very similar to the Tall Poppy Syndrome if you’ve heard of that? It is not a law, it’s a cultural mentality.

@uenmm4745 6 месяцев назад

"Jantelagen" its a terrible cultural phenomenon originally from Denmark. Its just village mentality gone too far. I personally dont care about it and that has sometimes got me in bad situations, for example attempts of workplace bullying.

Jante lags svene etik, witch, make people deppresed, and lonley. We have the largest single household in Europe. What i mean by that is. Many dont visit their grand parents. So they die alone. If you are a svene of course. Its not everyone but many thats why also many here adopt American culture.
