nej definition

nej they say “nja” which means “yes but no but”. Because sometimes saying “yes” or “no” will lead to conflict, so Swedes replace them with “maybe”, “it depends,” “I’ll see what I could do.” In the meeting, everyone discussions and then they compromise. Everyone has harvest, not too little and not too much, no one wins and no one loses, but “lagom”. (Moon, 2008)
