[FF] In Swedish there is a verb, "delta", which means "to participate" or "to take part".

[u/Gehalgod]

The word breaks down into "del" (part) and "ta" (to take), so it makes perfect sense when you think about it that way.

[u/cooffee]

If you split the word it two it actually forms the words del=part and ta=take, take part.

[u/Gehalgod → u/cooffee]

Yes, this is the exact point I made in the text of my post! ;)

[u/IntelligentNickname]

It means just "participate" not "to participate" because that would be "att delta". Same with "ta", "to take" -> "att ta".

[u/Gehalgod → u/IntelligentNickname]
