adgående

Adgående is a Swedish word that translates to "outgoing" or "departing" in English. It is commonly used in contexts related to travel, transportation, and communication.

In the context of transportation, "adgående" refers to trains, buses, or ferries that are leaving a station or port. For example, a sign at a train station might indicate "Adgående tåg till Stockholm," meaning "Outgoing train to Stockholm." This distinguishes them from "ankommande" (arriving) trains.

In telecommunications, "adgående" can describe incoming calls or messages. A phone might display "Adgående samtal" to indicate an incoming call. This is the opposite of "utgående" (outgoing) calls.

The word "adgående" is derived from the verb "gå" (to go) and the prefix "ad-" which can imply movement towards or arrival, but in this usage, it signifies movement away or departure. Understanding "adgående" is essential for navigating public transport and communication systems in Swedish-speaking environments. It is a common and useful term in everyday Swedish.
