adjective

otrolig

incredible

Något som är mycket svårt att tro på eller som känns fantastiskt.

Otrolig (Swedish):

  • Definition: Incredible, unbelievable, or amazing. It describes something that is hard to believe because it is so extraordinary or impressive.
  • Usage: Used to express astonishment or emphasize the extraordinary nature of something.

Synonyms:

  • Ofattbar – meaning "unfathomable" or "inconceivable," often implying something difficult to understand.
  • Fantastisk – means "fantastic" or "wonderful," which has a more positive and enthusiastic tone.
  • Oerhörd – means "unheard of" or "vast," highlighting something exceptional in size or extent.

Difference:
While otrolig generally means unbelievable, fantastisk focuses more on positive admiration, and ofattbar leans more toward something that is intellectually difficult to grasp.
