Ohanterligt

Ohanterligt is a Swedish adjective that translates to "unmanageable" or "uncontrollable" in English. It is derived from the verb "hantera," which means "to handle" or "to manage." The term is often used to describe situations, behaviors, or individuals that are difficult or impossible to control or manage. For example, one might say "det är ohanterligt att se hur mycket skräp det finns på gatan" (it is unmanageable to see how much litter there is on the street) to express frustration with the amount of trash in a public space.

The adjective "ohanterligt" can also be used to describe feelings or emotions that are overwhelming or difficult to cope with. In this context, it might be translated as "overwhelming" or "intolerable." For instance, "det känns ohanterligt att vara i en sådan situation" (it feels unmanageable to be in such a situation) could be used to describe a situation that is causing extreme stress or anxiety.

In both contexts, "ohanterligt" implies a sense of helplessness or inability to deal with a situation effectively. It is a versatile term that can be used in various situations to express dissatisfaction, frustration, or a lack of control.
