뜻
A day with much work.
문화적 배경
The phrase is often a precursor to 'hygge'. By acknowledging the day was long, you 'earn' the right to light candles and relax. Danes value efficiency. Saying you had a 'long day' often implies you were very productive, not just that you stayed late. It is a very common way to end a conversation or leave a social gathering without being rude. In winter, 'en lang dag' can ironically refer to the fact that it feels long because it is so dark, even if you didn't do much.
The 'Puha' Factor
Always precede 'Det har været en lang dag' with a 'Puha' (Phew) for maximum native-speaker points.
Don't over-complain
While common, saying it every single day might make you sound like you can't handle your workload.
