Huh, Lort is the swedish word for dirt you'd get on your clothes. Wonder if they know. I won't be that guy to tell them though, especially if someone else have told them already and they'll be like "uugh not you too".

In danish it means shit.

I suppose it can mean that in swedish as well, as in "du har skit/lort på kläderna"

Trying to guess: "you have shit/dirt on your shirt"?

Yepp, kind of, except it says on your clothes, so it's less specific

Ok, so kläderna is clothes. Interesting. Wonder how much that has to do with clad in English:

transitive verb

  1. To sheathe or cover (a metal) with a metal.
  2. To cover with a protective or insulating layer of other material.
  3. To clothe.

(I looked but didn't actually find a link between the two)

I just like to say "Lort." It's a fun word to say.

I repeat, we are all out of Lort license plates in the gift shop
