뜻
Advice to wear enough clothes.
문화적 배경
The phrase is linked to the 'layer-on-layer' (lager-på-lager) principle, which is taught to children from a very young age as a survival skill. Similar to Sweden, Norwegians say 'Kle deg godt'. The cultural value of 'ut på tur, aldri sur' (out on a trip, never grumpy) requires dressing properly to maintain a good mood. In Finland, where temperatures can drop even lower, 'dressing properly' often includes specific mention of 'karvalakki' (fur hats). Danes use 'Tag godt med tøj på'. While Denmark is less snowy, the wind from the sea makes 'dressing properly' just as vital.
The 'T' is key
Always remember the 't' at the end of 'ordentligt'. Without it, you're using an adjective, which sounds like 'dress yourself orderly person'.
Don't forget 'sig'
Swedish verbs for dressing are almost always reflexive. If you just say 'klä på', people will wait for you to say *who* you are dressing.

It's a compliment
If a Swede tells you that you have 'klätt på dig ordentligt', they are complimenting your common sense and preparedness!
