im bored, so here are some false friends in the Scandinavian languages: rar: nice (da), rare/excellent (se), rare/strange (no) flink: friendly (da), skilled/fast (se/no) fjæs/fjäs/fjes: face, negative (da), face, neutral (se/no) kone/kona: wife/old woman (da/no), woman, negative (se) taske/task: bag (da/no), scrotum (se) vask: sink (da/no/se), but väska in Swedish means "bag" rolig: calm (da/no), funny (se) youll still encounter the meanings from the other languages in older texts (say a Danish text that refers to a skilled but not necessarily friendly person as "flink"), ie its basically that the old words have become more specific with time, i guess because of vocabulary expansions and what not (for example, the neutral Danish for face is "ansigt", from Low German Ansicht = visage (lol French)). i suppose generally you could say Norwegian has retained more old Norse words, Danish has imported more German words, and Swedish more French (not sure about that last one tbh, but they have like byrå = office, from bureau etc, e: tho tbf da has kontor from French comptoir, ida i just feel like Swedish has more French than Danish). e: thx to NFX for some extras

I was bored so I looked up equivalents of "cum" in other languages. Because the thing of English making a noun of the arriving metaphor for orgasm for semen is interesting in way And (don't quote me) I read that Italian uses the metaphor of joy for semen which makes about as much sense Fwiw in my signed language it doesn't have the bandwidth for metaphor and would litteraly translate to "penis splurt"

The danish word "fyr" (meaning "guy") has an alternative meaning in Vendelbomål, which is the accent I grew up speaking: "kastreret hankat" (meaning "castrated stud").

Carthag Tuek posted:i But it's pronounced "veska", so it's functionally the same word as the norwegian word for bag, "veske" Some other false friends: Bæsj means poo in norwegian, in swedish it means to drink. "Pule" is a norwegian word for "to gently caress", in Sweden it's a word for cleaning. If you call a woman in Norway for "tøs" you're calling her a slut, in swedish "tös" just means "girl". In Norway "samlag" just means a cooperative, but in Sweden it means "intercourse". Alhazred has a new favorite as of 11:45 on Dec 3, 2022 |

One reason for a French influence on Swedish might be that the current Swedish royal family, house of Bernadotte, is French in origin. Descendants of French Marshal Jean Bernadotte (regnal name Karl XIV Johan) who was elected as heir to the childless and aging Swedish king in 1810 and became king in 1818 until his death in 1844. His wife was Napoleon's ex girlfriend. His grandson Charles XV was the third Bernadotte king but the first to be born or even raised in Sweden.

Artemis J Brassnuts posted:In Swedish, bajs is poop; bajsar is the act of pooping. I hasn’t heard it used for drinking but it’s my second language. "Bæsj" and "bajs" is pronounced differently. "Bæsj" and "bärs" (which means beer in Sweden) is pronounced the same. So if two swedes visiting Norway said that they were going to take a "bärs" together they would get a lot of funny looks from people around them.

I always wondered about orolig (worried) being the opposite of rolig (fun) in Swedish, but if it means "calm" in the other Nordic languages that makes a lot more sense.

A word request: I saw a word recently that I'd never seen before and thought it was a misspelling or some sort of trendy portmanteau but it had an actual dictionary(.com...) definition and everything. I can't quite remember it. I think it was something to do with a lousy student, or academic or even a writer. I'm familiar with poetaster and tried googling it along those lines and I've also googled "synonym for bad student" but that just comes up with synonyms for bad with student tacked on. I can't remember where I saw it but I'm pretty sure these forums. I have too many threads to find it though

Was abecedarian the one you were looking for? I suppose similarly, when public education started to take its current shape in Denmark in the late 1800s, there was a degree you could take after regular school (age 15 ish) called Præliminæreksamen and the graduates of that were called Præliminarist(-er). You could use this exam to apply for eg. university or certain specialized trades. This in contrast to the graduates from the older latin schools (which are the oldest in the country, dating to circa the 1536 reformation). So there was a distinct difference in class, though technically they gave the same opportunities. A latin school graduate calling someone a preliminarist would be comparable, ie not in itself negative but contextually absolutely so, I think Of course, this was also when you would be called a Student(-er) for the rest of your life if you ever went to University, and if you by some mental handicap had live in an insitution, you're an Alumnus.

In Michigan I heard the acronym BFE used to refer to some place in the middle of nowhere. I finally asked someone what it meant and they said “butt loving Egypt”, which wasn’t not etymologically satisfying. I’ve since heard “bum gently caress Idaho” used similarly, seems so unfair that the butts always have to go to the middle of nowhere for pleasure.

I played the entirety of Serious Sam: BFE unsure what the acronym was about and I kept expecting that eventually I would just get it. When the game ended, it never revealed it, I don't think it ever even said "butt loving Egypt." I tried to look it up online but I thought BFE was specifically a Serious Sam thing and so... well, anyway, eventually I learned it.
