mellanlång

Mellanlång is a Swedish adjective that translates to "medium-length" in English. It is commonly used to describe hair, but can also refer to other things that fall between short and long.

In the context of hairstyles, mellanlång hair typically falls somewhere between the chin and the shoulders. This can include styles like bobs that extend past the jawline, lobs (long bobs), or styles where the hair reaches the collarbone or just above the shoulders. It is a versatile length that offers many styling possibilities, bridging the gap between the practicality of short hair and the styling options of long hair.

The term can also be applied to clothing, such as a mellanlång coat or skirt, indicating a length that is neither short nor long but falls somewhere in the middle. Similarly, it might describe the length of a journey or a period of time, suggesting a duration that is moderate. The exact interpretation of "mellanlång" can depend on the context in which it is used, but the core meaning of being in the middle range remains consistent.
