butiksbiträdden and butikssäljare Yes, but ... Explanation: Yes, but one usually calls the females "butiksbiträden" (and pays them less) and the males "butikssäljare" (and pays them better). Please note the spelling of "butiksbiträden"! |

butiksbiträdden and butikssäljare shop assistant / salesperson Explanation: Though I do agree with Sven, I think that I'd expect a butiksbiträden to be slightly less active in "selling" - more stocking shelves, but also working in the tills (shop assistant), whereas a butikssäljare is more into "sales" - why you should buy this DVD player rather than the other, cheaper one... (salesperson). |
