意味
Arriving without delay.
文化的背景
Punctuality is a sign of respect for others' time. Being late is often seen as a lack of discipline or consideration. The 'Academic Quarter' (Akademisk kvart) allows students to arrive 15 minutes late to lectures in university towns. In business, 'vara i tid' applies to deadlines as much as meetings. Delivering a report late is a major taboo. For dinner parties, 'vara i tid' means arriving exactly at the time stated. Arriving early is considered impolite as the host may not be ready.
The 5-minute rule
In Sweden, 'i tid' often means 5 minutes before the actual start time.
Avoid 'på tid'
This is the most common mistake for English speakers. Remember: 'I' for 'In time'.
