What is 'tr氓kl氓t锘?#039;? I think it's Swedish, but i can't find a good translation site (like translate.google)?

It's translated as 'trakl'... Which is no help.





The word is mentioned here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lO3tQM5i鈥?/a>|||tr氓kig = boring





l氓t = song





tr氓kl氓t = "boring song"





Pretty sure that's not an actual word but it's the type of word that can be created and everyone will know what it means. ;)|||.


Dear ".",





Serendipity is correct, it means boring.





However, the word is "Tr氓kig" in Swedish. (or "trakig" in the Swenglish version).





"En tr氓k" is a boring person or thing.





Me speeke de Swede Talk! :-)





Hope this helped!





JohnW|||It means "boring song".





Serendipity and SERENDIPITIST are both more or less right, but I would add that "tr氓k" is not a very common word (and I think more often are used for something like "boredom" or "drabness"), whereas the word in this compound actually is "tr氓kig", like Serendipity says. The thing is, when you use the adjective "tr氓kig" as the first part of a compounded word you always drop the "ig"-ending amd just keep the stem of the word (i e "tr氓k-").





So, better give your points to Serendipity this time.





I might add that "l氓t" is an informal, everyday word for song, and is mostly used about pop or entertainment songs, not about classical art songs. The more general word for song is "s氓ng".
