🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

The 'Swedish bus stop' is a global meme. Swedes naturally keep a large distance from strangers. 'Hålla avstånd' is a social norm, not just a rule. Sweden's 'Vision Zero' makes 'hålla avstånd' a legal and moral priority. Tailgating is highly frowned upon and can lead to heavy fines. During the pandemic, Sweden did not have a strict lockdown, but the phrase 'Håll avstånd' was everywhere, relying on 'folkvett' (common sense). In Swedish offices, 'hålla avstånd' can also mean respecting someone's 'fika' time or not hovering over their desk.

⚠️
