Bedeutung
Parting phrase for meeting again.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Swedes value 'lagom' (just the right amount). 'Vi ses senare' is a lagom goodbye—not too cold, not too emotional. In Swedish offices, hierarchies are flat. You can use 'Vi ses senare' with your CEO just as easily as with a trainee. Sweden is highly digitized. 'Ses sen' is ubiquitous in Swedish Slack channels and SMS. In small towns, 'Vi ses senare' might be replaced by a simple 'Hej' (which can mean both hello and goodbye).
The 'S' Rule
If you are doing it together (meeting, talking, seeing), add an 's' to the verb!
Not for Strangers
Don't say this to the bus driver unless you actually know them.
