Swedish word of the day: kanelbulle
[]
The Local Sweden
Our chosen Swedish word of the day – kanelbulle – is very appropriate on this day: October 4th is Sweden's Cinnamon Bun Day.
Kanelbulle is a composition of the words kanel, which means "cinnamon" and bulle, which means "bun" or "small bread roll".
Long story short: kanelbulle means "cinnamon bun".
The plural is kanelbullar and when else would you have several kanelbullar than on cinnamon bun day?
The word kanelbulle is also sometimes used to describe the @ symbol, because of the way it looks.
