overkommes

Overkommes is a Swedish word that translates to "overcome" in English. It is the passive form of the verb "överkomma," meaning to overcome, surmount, or conquer. The word is used to describe a situation where a difficulty, challenge, or obstacle has been successfully dealt with or mastered. For example, "Svårigheterna överkommes med tålamod" would mean "The difficulties are overcome with patience." This implies that the difficulties are no longer a problem and have been successfully navigated. The passive voice in Swedish, as in English, emphasizes the action or the recipient of the action rather than the performer. Therefore, "överkommes" focuses on the state of having been overcome. It can refer to personal struggles, societal issues, or any challenge that has been successfully surmounted. The context in which "överkommes" is used will determine the specific nature of the challenge that has been overcome.
