What is the difference, if any, between "en flicka" and "en tjej"? Do you use them in different circumstances?
I'm not a native speaker, so forgive me if this is wrong, but I think "flicka" translates into "girl" whereas "tjej" is more along the lines of "young woman" or the American slang "chick". My partner is Swedish and people often refer to me as "hans tjej" ("his girlfriend/woman"), so I'd assume it can be used in a relationship scenario too.
