peer agreement (net): +2| fasnar på näthinnan it is not a commercial that sticks in ones mind Explanation: I assume this is a "slang expression" , as a Näthinnan is retina . Would "it's not a commerical/ad that sticks in ones mind" work?? I looked up "fasnar" & should it be "fastnar" ?? See below..... Swedish entry word fastnar [²f'as:nar] fastnade fastnat fastna(!) verb bli sittande (utan att komma loss), bli fast; stanna kvar <A/x fastnar i y> English translation get caught Examples fastna i en bilkö---get caught in a traffic jam fastna i minnet---stick in one's memory Idiomatic phrases fastna för något ("tycka om något, bestämma sig för något")---take a liking to something |
