よくある質問
10 問No, it's only for processes, events, or machines. You can't say 'He is like greased.'
It's neutral. You can use it with your boss or your best friend.
It is the past participle of 'smörja' (to grease). It means 'lubricated'.
No, that's a common mistake. It must be 'smort'.
Not directly, but you could say 'Det gick inte alls som smort' (It didn't go smoothly at all).
