Lagom

"Lagom" is a very tricky but a very good and useful word.
The meaning of the word is that it's just enough of something.
From the beginning I've heard that the word comes frome the vikings, when they sat together and drank some beer they all drank through the same can and then thay sad "lag om" which means around the whole team and then everybody drink just as much as they have to so it would be enough for everybody.
So if I would translate the word lagom into english it would be something like " teamtrough" or maybe "team around".
