Leaving a place.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The 'Swedish Goodbye' is often quick. Using 'gå iväg' is a standard part of this efficiency. In Swedish offices, hierarchy is flat. Even a CEO will say 'Jag går iväg på lunch' just like anyone else. In cities like Stockholm, 'gå iväg' is often used even if you are taking the subway, as long as the first part of the journey is walking. In the countryside, 'gå iväg' might be replaced by 'ge sig av' if the distance to be covered is significant.
The Stress Rule
Always stress 'iväg'. If you stress 'gå', you sound like a robot or a non-native speaker.
Don't Die!
Avoid 'gå bort' when you just mean you're leaving the room. It's a common and awkward mistake.

Use 'Dra' with Friends
If you're with close friends, say 'Ska vi dra?' instead of 'Ska vi gå iväg?'. It sounds much more natural.
The Polite Exit
In Sweden, it's polite to announce you are leaving a few minutes before you actually do. 'Jag ska nog gå iväg snart' is a perfect way to do this.
