To start working on a problem.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

In Swedish workplaces, 'att ta itu med saker' is seen as a sign of a 'självgående' (self-starting) employee. It is highly valued in the flat hierarchy of Swedish business. The phrase is equally common in Finland-Swedish and carries the same weight of pragmatism and 'sisu' (determination). There is a shared cultural trope of the 'handy' person who doesn't talk much but 'tar itu med' physical repairs or difficult tasks. On Swedish social media, you might see 'ta itu med' used in 'life hack' or productivity contexts, often with a sense of irony about how hard it is to start tasks.
