意味
to have bad luck in competitions
文化的背景
Swedes love board games (sällskapsspel), especially during the dark winter months. This phrase is a staple of Swedish social life. The phrase is equally common among Swedish-speakers in Finland, often used during traditional card games. In the context of professional E-sports (where Sweden is a world leader), this phrase is sometimes used ironically to describe technical failures. The second half of the phrase ('tur i kärlek') is often used as a lighthearted 'icebreaker' on dating apps like Tinder.
Use it to be a good sport
If you lose, saying this phrase immediately makes you look like a 'good loser' in Swedish culture.
Don't use 'dålig tur'
English speakers often say 'dålig tur' (bad luck), but this is a 'Swenglish' error. Always use 'otur'.
