Not too close.
文化背景
The 'Swedish Bus Stop' phenomenon is a real cultural trait where people stand far apart. 'Hålla avståndet' is seen as a sign of respect for others' privacy. Sweden has some of the world's strictest road safety laws. Not keeping the distance (tailgating) can lead to an immediate loss of your driver's license. In Nordic workplaces, 'hålla avståndet' to management is common to maintain a flat but professional hierarchy. After COVID-19, 'hålla avståndet' became a permanent part of the social vocabulary, often used jokingly when someone stands slightly too close.
The 3-Second Rule
In Sweden, 'hålla avståndet' in traffic is often taught as the 'tresekundersregeln' (3-second rule).
Don't say 'Hålla av'
Remember that 'hålla av någon' means you like them. Don't use it when you want them to move away!
