Right, that’s what it’s called in Swedish. Feel free to call it that and no one outside of the Nordics will have any idea of what you’re talking about. In English we could call it Swedish cheesecake if you need to be particularly verbose about it. Because it is a cheesecake.
Cheesecake was a thing for many centuries before the NYC style was first made. Hell, Swedish cheesecake predates the existence of the U.S. by a couple hundred years as well.
This conversation bores me, and so I sign off. You’re allowed to be wrong.
It’s not like anyone is going to know what “Swedish cheesecake” means either - you’re gonna have to explain it either way, so I think taking it as a loanword is the perfect one.
Bye then. I hope you learnt something about linguistics!
