معنی
Lacking the financial means to buy something.
زمینه فرهنگی
Swedes are generally very private about their exact salary, but quite open about whether they can afford something or not. It is not considered shameful to say 'jag har inte råd'. Usage is identical, but the cultural context of 'talkoot' (communal work) might mean you 'have råd' with time even if you don't have money. In the era of 'Buy Now Pay Later' (like Klarna, a Swedish company), the phrase 'inte ha råd' is being debated as people can afford things through credit even if they don't have the cash. In the 19th century, 'inte ha råd' often meant literal starvation or the need to emigrate to America.
The 'Med' Rule
Always use 'med' if you are naming a specific object you can't afford. 'Jag har inte råd med den här mobilen.'
Don't use 'är'
Never say 'Jag är inte råd'. It's a very common mistake for English speakers. Use 'har'.
