RE: Do you know the word "Hygge"?

in #life7 years ago

Ha ha yes of course - I am Norwegian and we use this word a lot. The original word is "Hyggelig" and another version which has a similar meaning is "Koselig" . which also means "Cosy"

Sort:  

I love the meaning of those words, they are really inspiring words ^_^

The word is originally Norwegian, and came to Denmark i the nineteenth century, but the use it more casually (a bit like nice) and say koselig for the above mentioned concept (crawĺing into the warm and secure little hole with your family :) In Sweden they have the rather sweet word mysig for the same.
