    Huh, Lort is the swedish word for dirt you’d get on your clothes. Wonder if they know. I won’t be that guy to tell them though, especially if someone else have told them already and they’ll be like “uugh not you too”.

        I suppose it can mean that in swedish as well, as in “du har skit/lort på kläderna”

              Ok, so kläderna is clothes. Interesting. Wonder how much that has to do with clad in English:

              transitive verb

              1. To sheathe or cover (a metal) with a metal.
              2. To cover with a protective or insulating layer of other material.
              3. To clothe.

              (I looked but didn’t actually find a link between the two)

      I just like to say “Lort.” It’s a fun word to say.
