Den gamle butlern, Kimpa, som hade fått stränga order om att ge mig ett »förstklassigt mottagande«, blev rätt paff när han fick se mig.

2010, Max Frei, translated by Alan Asaid, Främlingen, page 15:

The old butler, Kimpa, who had been given strict orders to give me a "first-class welcome," was quite taken aback when he saw me.

De påtalar att det stjäl arbetstid och orsakar stress när läkarna måste leta upp ett skrivbord varje dag, och de påpekar att grupperna med flexibla arbetsplatser har placerats »långt bort från medicinklinikens kärnverksamhet samt att arbetsplatserna sprids ut på tre olika platser på sjukhuset«.

2025 January 9, Jesper Cederberg, “Facket på Ryhov tar »flexibla« platser till Arbetsmiljöverket [The union at Ryhov takes "flexible" workstations to the Swedish Work Environment Authority]”, in Läkartidningen:

They highlight that it steals working time and causes stress when doctors must find a desk every day, and they point out that the groups with flexible workstations have been placed "far from the core activities of the medical department and that the workstations are spread across three different locations in the hospital."

Alternative form of » », in place of the more usual ” ”.


Den bok jag nu sätter mig ner att skriva måste verka meningslös på många – om jag alls vågar tänka mig, att ”många” får läsa den – eftersom jag alldeles självmant, utan någons order, börjar ett sådant arbete och ändå inte själv är riktigt på det klara med vad avsikten är.

1940, Karin Boye, Kallocain. Roman från 2000-talet [Kallocain. A novel from the 21st century], page 5:

The book I am now sitting down to write must seem pointless to many – if I even dare imagine that "many" will get to read it – since I am entirely of my own accord, without anyone's orders, beginning such a work and yet am not entirely clear myself about what the purpose is.

Den 57-åriga politikern uppmanade anhängare att komma ”i miljontals” för att pressa Maduro att lämna över makten till Edmundo González Urrutia, den oppositionella kandidaten i exil som flera internationella bedömare ser som den rättmätige valvinnaren.

2025 January 9, “Venezuelas oppositionsledare María Corina Machado greps och släpptes [Venezuela's opposition leader María Corina Machado arrested and released]”, in SVT Nyheter, sourced from TT News Agency:

The 57-year-old politician urged supporters to gather "in their millions" to pressure Maduro to hand over power to Edmundo González Urrutia, the opposition candidate in exile whom several international observers regard as the rightful election winner.


»Jag undrar just om nån tänker, att jag är glad åt å ta emot det här barnet,» mumlade han, där han satt, och med detsamma sparkade han till en liten vedpinne, så att den flög ända ut på gården.

1914, Selma Lagerlöf, Kejsarn av Portugallien, page 7:

"I wonder if anyone thinks that I’m happy to take in this child," he muttered as he sat there, and at the same time, he kicked a small stick of firewood so that it flew all the way out into the yard.

I vanlig svenska brukas ordet »rapport» lite annorlunda än hur vi använder det i det här sammanhanget.

2007, Henrik Fexeus, Konsten att läsa tankar, page 23:

In ordinary Swedish, the word "rapport" is used slightly differently than how we use it in this context.

Den analoga upptagningen av en människas utseende och röst kan ske »automatiserat» i den meningen att upptagningen påbörjas och avslutas utan att någon människa är direkt inblandad eller närvarande.

2011, Roger Petersson, Klas Reinholdsson, Personuppgiftslagen i praktiken, 4th edition, page 64:

The analogue recording of a person's appearance and voice can be "automated" in the sense that the recording starts and ends without any human being directly involved or present.

May be used to enclose a quotation, in place of the more usual ” ”.

Vad som är korrekt svenska väcker stort engagemang, inte minst bland språkpoliser som gärna påpekar fel på sociala medier.

2022 June 8, “Stavfel och särskrivningar får språkpoliser att se rött [Spelling errors and incorrectly writing as separate words make grammar police see red]”, in Forskning.se:

What is correct Swedish arouses great commitment, not least among grammar police who like to point out mistakes on social media.
– They seem to be found in all age groups and incorrectly writing as separate words is what they dislike the most, says Anna Heuman at Örebro University.

Vid tryckningen har den skillnaden gjorts att särskrivning har brukats i klassiska citat och hopskrivning i nylatinska texter.

1941, Jacob Wallenberg, edited by Nils Afzelius, Samlade skrifter II, page 548:

When printing, the distinction has been made that writing as separate words has been used in classical quotations and compound words in neo-Latin texts.

Angående avstavningen få vi påpeka, att något förslag angående denna sak icke av oss gjorts, och vi anse, att denna fråga liksom frågorna om språkriktighet, särskrivning och annat dylikt icke böra sammanblandas med frågan om ljudbeteckningen.

1886 January 26, J. A. Lyttkens, F. A. Wulff, “I rättstafningsfrågan. [Regarding the issue of orthography.]”, in Svenska Dagbladet (letter to the editor), page 3:

Regarding the hyphenation, we may point out that we have not made any proposal regarding this matter, and we believe that this question, like the questions about correctness of language, writing as separate words and such, should not be mixed up with the question of the sound designation.

brevterminalernas (definite genitive plural)


portokod

Det handlar om portokoder som man köper online och sedan för hand plitar ner på det som ska skickas, istället för att klistra på ett frimärke.

2021 March 24, Bobby Green, “PostNord lanserar portokoder – Ersätt frimärket med en kod”, in Feber.se:

It's about postage codes that you buy online and then by hand write down on what is to be sent, instead of pasting a stamp.

I stället för att klistra fast frimärke på kuvertet kan du nu själv skriva en portokod som har samma funktion.

2021 May 5, Anders Frick, “Så fungerar de nya portokoderna som ersätter frimärket”, in Ny Teknik:

Instead of sticking a stamp on the envelope, you can now write a postage code yourself that has the same function.

Visserligen går det fortfarande utmärkt att köpa frimärken och klistra dem på kuvert och brev, men det finns en digital variant av frimärken som blir allt populärare – de så kallade portokoderna.

2023 April 19, Markus Dahlberg, “Portokod – nya tidens frimärke [Postage code – the stamp of the modern age]”, in Här & Nu:

It is still perfectly fine to buy stamps and stick them on envelopes and letters, but there is a digital alternative to stamps that is becoming increasingly popular – the so-called postage codes.

Filatelister, frimärkssamlare våndas rimligen över portokoderna.

2024 August 21, Henrik Östensson, “Portokoden – när portot blir frimärksbefriat [The postage code – when postage becomes stamp-free]”, in Sydnärkenytt:

Philatelists, stamp collectors, are understandably distressed by postage codes.

The sweater has been sold in the United Kingdom, but after criticism and accusations of racism, the product image where the boy is wearing the sweater has been removed.
