뜻
To keep moving or active
문화적 배경
The concept of 'Friluftsliv' (open-air life) encourages Swedes to 'hålla i gång' outdoors regardless of the weather. This is summed up in the saying 'Det finns inget dåligt väder, bara dåliga kläder'. During the summer 'industrisemester' (industrial vacation), many businesses struggle to 'hålla i gång' operations as almost everyone is on leave simultaneously. There is a massive social emphasis on 'aktivt åldrande' (active aging). Municipalities often provide 'hålla i gång'-classes for seniors. In Swedish clubs, the 'vibe' is everything. A DJ who can 'hålla i gång' the dance floor is highly valued because Swedes can sometimes be shy to start dancing.
Use it for health
When talking to Swedes about health, use this phrase instead of 'träna' (to train) to sound more natural and holistic.
Watch the 'ng'
Make sure you don't pronounce a hard 'g' at the end of 'gång'. It should be a smooth nasal sound.
