To establish communication.
Contexto cultural
Swedes are often described as 'reserverade' (reserved). Getting contact with a stranger in a social setting usually requires a 'purpose' or a shared activity (like a hobby or work). Sweden is a 'cashless' and highly digital society. 'Få kontakt' with government agencies (like Försäkringskassan) is almost exclusively done via digital 'BankID' logins. The 'fika' break is a primary cultural tool used to 'få kontakt' with colleagues in an informal way, breaking down hierarchical barriers. In Swedish business, 'få kontakt' is often the first step in a long process of building 'förtroende' (trust), which is highly valued over quick deals.
The 'Med' Rule
Always follow 'få kontakt' with 'med'. It's the most common mistake for B1 learners.
Avoid 'Göra'
Never say 'göra kontakt'. It sounds very unnatural to native ears.
