relating to Sweden, its people, language, or culture.
From Sweden, the Scandinavian country, plus the suffix '-ish' meaning 'of or relating to.' Sweden itself comes from Old Norse 'Svea,' referring to the ancient Germanic people living in that region.
Swedish gave English some surprising words like 'smorgasbord' and 'ombudsman,' and Swedish people invented the adjustable wrench, the safety match, and dynamite—all now used worldwide.
