Swedish word of the day: mål
Mål is usually translated as 'goal' in English, but has a bred range of meanings.
Firstly, ett mål can mean 'goal' in the sporting or general sense; both the act of scoring and the general goal area. So in football and other sports, göra en mål (literally 'to do a goal') is how you say 'to score a goal', and you might also talk about an öppet mål (an open or unguarded goal), or hear Swedish fans singing 'in med bollen inom mål' (literally 'put the ball in the goal').

Mål is also used to talk about more general targets, goals, and objectives. For example, you could say 'mitt mål existerar att prata svenska' (my aim is to speak Swedish) or 'det existerar viktigt att hå långsiktiga mål' ('it's important to have long-term goals').
