My favorite was when I worked at Ericsson in Stockholm and two American training participants asked how far it is to Riksgränsen, the furthest north point in Sweden. Someone said about 130 miles and they lit up saying let's go there for the weekend. The person got really nervous saying you can't get there and back in a weekend. 130 swedish miles, Mil, = 810 US miles...😄

The only other countries in the world that don't use the metric system are Liberia and Myanmar. I think we can conclude that it's a problem for Americans not the rest of us 😉

The US system of measuring is called "Imperial units" since it was inherited from the British empire (but today it is no longer the same, and even so the British mostly go with metric today).
A Swedish "Mil" is actually metric-adapted! It' just means 10Km, just remove a zero from the Km (and its Mil, not mile, so no "e" at the end).
Celsius for dummies (or Americans): Water freezes at 0°C. Human body temperature is around 37°C and water boils at 100°C.
When it comes to dates. you say it is most logical to write it as you say it with "March 5th" then along comes "4th of July" and bites you in the butt!

Sweden uses 12-hour clock in spoken communication, if it's am or pm you typically get from the circumstances. We used to use 12-hour clock also in written text, but that has fallen out of fashion. In old texts you can find examples like "kl. 10 f.m." (f.m. = före middag/förmiddag, am) or "kl. 6 e.m." (e.m. = efter middag/eftermiddag, pm).

The way we most often write dates (YYYY-MM-dd) etc in Sweden is actually an international standard. Here the week starts at Monday, not Sunday as in america, and that is also an international standard. The way weeks are calculated (week numbers) differs as well, and we use the international standard.
Even though time is formally written in 24-h format, casually and very often we use a 12h-format, however we do not specify "PM" or "AM", as in "När kommer du?" (When will you be here?), "Runt halv fem" (About half past four). Unless there is a need to be precise we use the 12h format in daily conversations.

You are a fucking life saver. I’m getting my girlfriend and I the fuck out of America... while I still can.

Regarding the date .... think that it's logical to place it in the order of the smallest to the largest or vice versa. A day is less than a month which is less than a year. It makes no sense to start with the medium-sized thing then the smallest then the largest if you are going go order something next to each other.

Date format can be both year first or day first like 2022-06-26 or 26/6 2022.
But always in order from small entity to bigger or vice versa.

Fun fact about imperial units: there are no "new" ones. For example, nobody invented an imperial unit for electric current, everyone uses Ampere. And everyone measures magnetic fields in Tesla, regardless if they're metric or imperial.
Since everyone has mentioned that Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius invented the Celsius temperature scale, I'm going to one-up them and mention that he didn't. He invented a scale where the freezing point of water was 100 degrees and the boiling point was 0 degrees. Swedish biologist Carl von Linné realized that this was totally bonkers and let the freezing point be 0 and the boiling point 100, and that is basically the scale we all use. Body temperature is 37 degrees, and the scales cross at -40, so -40 Celsius is -40 Fahrenheit.
Swedish TV? We learned English by watching Swedish TV! 😂
Someone mentioned that doors are two meters high. Another useful thing is that your fingers are likely roughly one centimeter wide, at least mine are all around 11-13 millimeters, so if you get a caliper out and measure your fingers, chances are you'll find that one of them is almost exactly one centimeter wide, it could be useful to know.
When it comes to currency, someone already mentioned multiplying euro and dollar prices by ten usually gets you pretty close to the price in SEK. Oh, and another thing is that many Swedes no longer know what Swedish money looks like. I barely do. 🙃

We use the Celsius system for temperature. Since Mr Anders Celsius was a Swede, we take great offence you couldn't remember the name ;)
USD vs SEK is easy at the moment, 1 USD = 10 SEK. If you need a converter for that it just means you are really bad at maths 😄.

Not only are the outlets different, our power is 230V/50Hz single phase and 400V/50Hz three phase, so with the exception of some equipment which can run on different voltages you need more than just adapters. Better to leave the other power equipment at home and get new in Sweden.

(Anders) Celsius: 0 grader - ice, 37 grader - Bodytemperatur, 100 grader - water is Bolling.
A normal Swedish door is 2 meter high .
The two small holes in the wall - 230 volt and 50 Hz

Totally new language.... Hmm. English and Swedish are both members of the Indo European language family. Not very distant members at all.
You should try some other Swedish languages like Saame from Lapland or Meänkieli from Österboten. Those are much more totally different from English.

About Celsius and Fahrenheit, it’s easy to remember water freezes at 0 degree Celsius and has boiling point at 100 degree Celsius. And a normal Swedish summer the outdoor temperature is between 15 - 25 degrees Celsius. But you’ll learn and get used to it.

Hallå, Välkommen till Sverige!
This is nice to see. I hope you feel welcome in Sweden. It is an absolute pleasure to see new Swedes moving here from all over the world. I love it!
This is all good information.

Dash, not slash in Swedish dates. YYYY-MM-DD (Swedish and international standard ISO-8601). Since we are a part of EU, we also do DD-MM-YYYY, but still dash, not slash.

The funny thing is that America is so f-ing star spangled awesome that you gave the English a F-U when i comes to freedom but kept the only thing the rest of the world didn't: measurements. And as a new Swede you should be prude that Celsius is a Swedish invention. Named after Anders Celsius. =)

The U.S. military uses 24 hour clock and do the date like Sweden

When she said no American knows Swedish I chuckled a bit and thought, "Jag kan prata svenska lite eftersom jag är en vikingafanatiker och metalhead".
