意思
To investigate something in more detail.
文化背景
This phrase is a cornerstone of 'konsensuskultur'. Swedes prefer to avoid making snap decisions in favor of thorough investigation and group agreement. In a Swedish workplace, saying this isn't necessarily a 'no'. It's a sign of respect for the complexity of the task. The word 'sak' has deep roots in the Nordic 'Ting' (assembly), where 'saker' were legal matters to be discussed by the community.
The 'Buy Time' Strategy
Use this phrase in meetings when you don't have an answer. It makes you sound smart and diligent rather than unprepared.
Don't forget 'på'!
Leaving out 'på' is the most common mistake for English speakers. 'Titta saken' is incorrect.
