more or less Explanation: I don't quite see it as "so to speak" as MSEK 150 is not being used in an unusual way. I think it's more a question of the amount not being precise, down to the last Kronor, hence my suggestion. |

peer agreement (net): +1sort of Explanation: Another suggestion, instead of "so to speak", which, in my opinion, fits and sounds better. I agree that "typ" can also mean "more or less", but I wouldn't translate it in that way for a given context. |

[omit] Explanation: I suggest leave it out. There is the explanation in English "in kind", which can be left in with the quotation marks to cover a multitude of sins, including the poor writing others have mentioned. |
