extralåg

Extralåg is a Swedish term meaning "extra low" and is used as a descriptive adjective to emphasize values, levels, or conditions that are significantly lower than typical or expected. It is not a formal technical term but a flexible expression found in everyday language, media, and marketing.

The word is formed from extra and låg and appears in phrases such as extralåg ränta (an exceptionally low interest rate) or extralågpris (an exceptionally low price). It is also used in journalism and consumer communications to convey that a value is well below the ordinary range. In meteorology or environmental reporting, expressions like extralåg temperatur or extralåg nederbörd may be used informally to describe unusually low readings.

Because extralåg is not a standardized term, its use is context-dependent and can carry persuasive intent. Advertisers and retailers often employ it in promotional materials, but consumer protection rules in many jurisdictions require that such claims be verifiable and not misleading. In scientific or regulatory contexts, more precise descriptors (for example, "extremely low" with specified units or "below threshold X") are typically preferred.
