Olitterär

Olitterär is a Swedish term that describes a person who is not literary or who lacks interest in literature. It refers to someone who does not read books, engage with poetry, or show a significant appreciation for written works. The concept is not necessarily judgmental, but rather descriptive of an individual's cultural engagement.

It can also be used informally to differentiate between individuals who prioritize literary pursuits and those who do not. Understanding "olitterär" helps in comprehending distinctions in personal interests and engagement with art forms. It is a straightforward descriptor for a lack of involvement with literature.
