Yes, Swedes will understand you, but 'tajming' is the correct Swedish spelling and is preferred in writing.

It is 'en tajming', which is why we say 'dålig' and not 'dåligt'.

It is neutral. You can use it with friends, but also with your boss or in a news report.

The opposite is 'bra tajming' or 'perfekt tajming'.

Yes, that is perfectly natural to say if you are talking about your own actions.

Yes, but 'olägligt' is more formal. 'Dålig tajming' is much more common in speech.

No, you can't say 'Han är dålig tajming'. You must say 'Han har dålig tajming'.

Very much so! It's often used to explain why a deal didn't go through.

It sounds like the 'y' in 'yes' or 'tie'.

Yes! If you say 'Vilken tajming!' it usually means 'What (great) timing!', but it can be sarcastic.

Yes, it's very common in texting. You can even shorten it to 'dålig tajm' in very casual slang.

Not necessarily. It often implies that the situation or 'fate' is to blame.

Yes, 'att tajma'. For example: 'Jag lyckades tajma det perfekt'.

Swedish spelling rules usually use 'j' for the /j/ sound, whereas 'i' would change the vowel sound.
