I'll let me a link in the description to this okay so So, today, we talk about alcohol culture in Sweden.

And, inan we begin, I go in-gienom, little vocabular. So we have, to example, first and first and first and first, and first, it,

not that you have eaten till you're mett, as we say on on the Swedish, but to be full It means that you have drunked much alcohol, so that you are a little kind of, you are full. And, to supa, or to cruek, that means that you're drinking alcohol for to be full, okay?

to supa. So, I super, I go, and I have supit in my life a little,

yeah, I've actually. Then have we systembolaget, and systembolaget is in the the buticen

where you go to alcohol, where you goper, wine, and sprit and all the

all of, it calls for systembolaget or systemet, or I have a I have a

offsnit on specific system bolaget really interesting and you can get a more history about alcohol

in Sweden and our restrictions on alcohol in Sweden for we have always had

always had problem with alcohol in Sweden and the state have always

have always tried set restrictions for that it is a problem with alcohol so listen

on the ofsnit 75 if you will know about this and this here

and the history back on the systembolaget and so and then have

the word nukter and nicter that you don't have drunked

alcohol. You can also be nukter in the life, which it means that you drinker not alcohol. No, I am a newtter, I'm a newtter in kvell, or I live a nictet life, so. We have berusad also. Burusad, it means that

it comes from the word, a ruse. And a ruse is that you're, that you're, like, is a a person

can say that alcohol gives you a ruse it does so that you

be put on something sort of a ruse to be arusad okay

so alcohol alcohol culture in I'm I'm I'm

I'm say that we can define the this this

this culture, little bit like that we are very medvetna. We, we are much about

effects that alcohol has. Maybe for that we have many problems with alcohol, it has always been a problem

with alcoholism, and so on the things. So, So there is a strong medvietenhet, that people know, people understand,

and so. And we have many restrictions. But I think that I think that I'm doing more than other cultures,

or maybe, or maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, but, and, more for

to be brused. Also, people drinker often for to be berused. Okay, so in Spain, here, here,

I see I, that people drinker often, but maybe not drinker so much. And in Sweden,

I think, people, I think, people, don't, like often. But, when when you drinker, then will

you're gyrna drink a little more for you'll feel feel the effect and I think and I think that

a great reason is that we are quite reserverered in Sweden so real social

it is a little difficult for the swanks to socialiser on a spontaneous set

on a off-slappnate set and upet especially to talk with fremlingar if you

if you will if you want to talk with a girl that you gillar then it

that you drinker little alcohol first so be it lettary but not likely

not better but maybe it therefor that people drinker but I know not really

why. It can't just are in blood it, in gener. Who can't? But, yeah,

so we have in all fall little more restrictions we have, we gillar to drink a more alcohol

and this medvetenheten it, to example it is not so It's very that parents

drink or or let their children drink before they they're 18. So I know that maybe in other

countries it can't okay that, ah, but take a little wine, take a little little

a little grand. But I think in Sweden so, so not people not

their children drink so I don't I don't but some of

the restrictions that are in all the we have 18 year's on

to drink alcohol you must be 18 for to for to drink

alcohol and you must be 20 for to buy alcohol on

systembolaget. So it is a little kind of for that it is okay that you drinker

alcohol when you are 18 you can go out to a bar and drink

alcohol when you are 18 but if you will buy a flask

in a boutique then must you be 20 and you can go to system

Bolaget For system bolaget is alcohol Monopolet So Staten have monopoly

on alcohol It means that You can just buy alcohol on Systembolaget

You can buy oil With max 3.5 in a vanly But you can

are 18 years. But all thing that is starker, all thing that has more than 3.5%

that must you buy on systemet. Systemet also systembolaget and you

must visa leg. Legg also legitimation. Legitimation also

your ID court. And they have a regal that that if you see out to be

25 or younger, so must you see a legitimation. So it's quite strict.

You have an boutique, you can go to go to and buy alcohol, you must planer,

you must be at 20, you must be to give leg. So it is a little

stricter than in many other And it is also Forbjured to do Reclam for Alcohol

You can't do not do recl for alcohol in Sweden So you don't take Heineken

For not like to see in TV How how really it is to drink Heeniken So

there is There are There are quite many restrictions And And one thing that I

want to take up that I think that's about this this medvietenheten that you know, that you know, you know, you're

being put, it has to do with to carry a car for in in Sweden so it's like

that it is that it is people not when they have drunk it generally. It's not it's not a very that people

work a car when they have drunkied I would never do that. It's like a strong thing. You're like it to carry rattful.

Rattful. Also, to carry rattful is that you're that you're when you're berused, when you have

drunked alcohol. But I have marked, that in other lenders are it not all

like a big a so here in Spain it works like people they think they are

a very they are more read for the police than that it should be

an or a lecka so an olyca also that you can to example, crockers

with the or that you're on an other man. But little statistics, so 25% of all who are

who are in traffic in Europe is related to alcohol. So 25% of all death's olycer in Europe are related to alcohol

25% it's much and there are three three great andlednings to that people die in the traffic

three two are two things to that people die in traffic and that you are that you're

that you're for fast you're for fast or you're not not bill belte,

also beltet that you take on in the or alcohol. So it's the three three

the people do in the traffic to work for fast, no

bill belte or alcohol. So if you see to not not

not try to always have a bill and not to not be

rightful, then you are relatively safe in traffic. So I don't

really why people work after they have drunk but in all fall.

It was a little sidesticker there. So inan we have

we have slutate this this I go in the more vocabulair.

Little really a really really a lotholt-related vocabular. So we have places that you have often furtair alcohol

on. To example, an bar. An bar or a pub. It is well, about

same thing. An pub lota a little more British or Irlandsht or an bar is

a little more general. And so we an nightclub. nightclub You know You can also say

discotheque But we say Not discothec In Sweden But we say A nightclub And this This here

This is For a cro A crog Is a place Yeah To example A bar or a nightclub

Or a restaurant Where you There you're Alcohol A crog So you can say We're going to We're going to out

We're out and take Some of drinkar We're to car We're to crogan Then have we Dricker So we have Oll, we have

We have wine We have Sprit Sprit is To example Whiskey, vodka gin We are Sprit And a grot

A grog is that you have a bit of a bit of something, to example, cola, or fanta, or juice, or something. It's a grog. And, some of verb, as said, we have to supa. At supa,

that you're drinking alcohol, and, tangling, quite much. Same thing, to cruek. Or, just to drink. You can say, yeah, but drackney much I go, so drackney much alcohol, ago. Then have we, then have we, then a fila.

An filla is, you, that, that man is full, whole, you can say, a good filla, or a lowly filla, or a sneefilla. A sneerfilla is when it has got very lowly, and you, plur, blarly, or you get a gala, or you get a blackout, or snefilla, so when you can't be aggressive, or it goes dole it, it is a sneerfiller. And then, the day after, so, so are you,

maybe, backful. So, you are backful, or you have a backfilla. You can also say that you are bacchis. I am a little bacchis, today, for, I gop, I guess, I guess, I guess, I did I don't, It did I didn't, but you can say so. And so there are very many words for to be brusad. So, yeah, berusad is, like, standard word, which is a little more technist, to be brusad.

You can be salons-berused. Or just salons. It means that you have drunked little bit, and you're a little a little glad then you're a salonsberusad

or just salons I'm a little salons then if you're more so maybe you're a little onycter

you're not not even but you're little onycter you're a little lullig you're a little lullig

you round-on-footerna. Round-om-futterna, also, you know, that foot-ner-na are a little little runda,

so it will be a little swort with balanceen, so you're a round-om-futterna. Or, you're a little

dragen. You can say that you're little drangen, or much-dragen, it is, that you're a little full.

Yeah, full is, full is, like, standard word. If you have drunked much alcohol, then you're full, okay? You can also say that you're redless. He was whole redless. Or police, that he was, he was, he was, he was, or packed. You can say, shit, he was, he was packed, also, he was full. Or he was as-packed, also,

yet-full, also, ahs-packed, or carate-full, it means also that you're really, that you're get-get-full, carate-full,

or ding-rack. If you're ding-rack, then come, you're, probably, snart at decka. And to deck-to-be-b-b... ...blir-bler...

...blit-sless, for that you have have drunked for much alcohol to decka also you have been decked he drank till he decked

in soffan so there have you a little really a alcohol vocabulair and I hopeas you have

got to get more on Swedish alcohol culture a little ironist that I talk about

this here just now for that I I bestemed me for to not drink alcohol in January. I drinker not yet much, even though, but I have a little

like a newtter January. Not just nectar, but I have a little strict January. I'm, I'm, to example, not on Netflix, or YouTube, or newhets, or anything something so on, I like,

eliminate distractions, and it is very really shun't, actually. The only that is a little is a little bit is when I and my

friend should eat together, for we usually look at something on Netflix, and she gillar to do it, so it will, type,

that she sits and I sit and are vended to her instead so that I not

not look at it's a little kind of but it feels generally very very shun't

that not have the distractions yeah it has just got a week so we
