Bedeutung
Success in academic evaluation.
Kultureller Hintergrund
The Swedish grading scale goes from A to F. A is the highest, and E is the lowest passing grade. F is a fail. Getting 'bra betyg' usually means getting A, B, or C. In Sweden, your 'betyg' from high school or university are often required even for entry-level jobs. Employers value formal education highly. Due to 'Jantelagen', Swedes might downplay their 'bra betyg'. If someone says 'Det gick okej', they might actually have received top marks. Swedish newspapers often use a 1-5 scale (sometimes represented by 'getingar' or 'plus') to give 'betyg' to movies and restaurants.
Use 'få' for receiving
Always use the verb 'få' (to get/receive) when talking about the grades you earned.
Plural is the same
Remember that 'ett betyg' and 'många betyg' look exactly the same. Don't add an 's' or 'er'!

Modesty matters
If you have 'bra betyg', it's often more 'Swedish' to be humble about it.
