意思
Going to sleep.
文化背景
Swedes value their sleep and often have very specific 'bedtime rituals' involving 'kvällsfika' (evening tea/snack) before going to sängs. In Finland-Swedish, the phrase is identical, but the timing might differ as Finnish culture often involves a late-evening sauna before going to sängs. Danish uses 'gå i seng', which is very close. Swedes visiting Denmark often accidentally use 'till sängs' and are perfectly understood. In the digital age, 'gå till sängs' often includes the unspoken act of 'skrolla på mobilen' (scrolling on the phone) for 30 minutes before actually sleeping.
The 'S' Trick
Remember the 's' in 'sängs' stands for 'Sleep' to help you remember it's the idiom for sleeping.
Don't use 'i'
Avoid saying 'gå i säng'; it sounds like a direct translation from German or English.

No, you cannot add possessives. Say 'gå och lägga mig i min säng' instead.
'Säng' is the noun (bed). 'Sängs' is the special form used only in this phrase.
Yes, but they often abbreviate or use 'ska sova nu' (going to sleep now).
No, it's generally for the main sleep of the night.
Always 'sängs' with an 's'.
It can in certain contexts, but it is much less suggestive than the English 'go to bed with someone'.
Say 'Jag ligger i sängen'.
It's neutral-formal. It's safe to use everywhere.
It's a leftover from Old Swedish grammar.
