Swedish
[edit]Etymology
[edit]Attested since 1910, of uncertain origin with at least two proposed etymologies:
- From a dialectal verb macka (“to work, to finish”), related to German machen (“to make”).
- From Tavringer Romani macka (“to grease, to cream, to butter”), from Romani mak (“grease, lubricant”). Related to Sanskrit म्रक्षति (mrakṣati, “to smear”) and Hindi मक्खन (makkhan, “butter”).
Pronunciation
[edit]Noun
[edit]macka c
- (colloquial) an (open-face) sandwich (slice(s) of bread with toppings, usually buttered)
- (sports, colloquial) a beautiful pass
Usage notes
[edit]- Open-face sandwiches are the most common type in Swedish cuisine. A sandwich with two slices of bread can be qualified as a dubbelmacka.
- Almost always buttered (in addition to any toppings), unbuttered bread being considered dry.
