뜻
To struggle or feel uncomfortable with something.
문화적 배경
Danes use this phrase to avoid being 'besværlige' (difficult). By saying 'Jeg har det stramt med...', you take the responsibility for the discomfort onto yourself rather than blaming the other person. In the 'Z-generation' in Denmark, 'stramt' is often shortened or used as an adjective for anything annoying. 'Hvor er det stramt!' (How annoying/tight!). In modern Danish flat-hierarchy workplaces, it is common to use this phrase to signal burnout or mental load to a manager in a 'soft' way. The phrase is often used with irony. If someone is being extremely dramatic, a friend might say 'Har du det stramt?' as a way of teasing them for overreacting.
The 'Det' Rule
If you forget the 'det', you're just saying 'I have tight with...'. Always keep that 'det' in there!
Not for Trauma
Don't use this for very serious life tragedies; it can sound dismissive.

Softening the Blow
Use 'lidt' (a little) to make your complaint sound more Danish and less aggressive: 'Jeg har det *lidt* stramt med...'
