意味
to be wrong or clueless
文化的背景
Sailing is a national pastime. Almost every Swede has a connection to the sea, making nautical metaphors very resonant and easily understood across all age groups. Similar nature-based idioms exist across the Nordics. In Norway, they say 'være på bærtur' (to be out picking berries) to mean the same thing. Swedes value 'fakta' (facts) highly. Using this idiom is a way to point out a lack of factual basis without being as aggressive as saying 'You are lying.' Swedish journalists often use this idiom in headlines to critique government policies or opposition claims, showing its acceptance in semi-formal writing.
Add 'helt' for impact
To sound more like a native, add 'helt' (completely). 'Du är helt ute och seglar' is much more common than the basic version.
Don't use with 'att'
Never say 'ute att segla'. It's a common learner mistake that sounds very unnatural to Swedish ears.
