"Jag mår illa."

Translation: I feel nauseated.

[creativemetaphor]

Is "I feel ill" an accepted translation?

[Arnauti]

Yes.

[ElBuono]

Carrying on from the above comments 'ill' is always a little ambiguous in English as is 'sick'.
'He was feeling ill' can means he felt unwell or felt nauseous .
'He was ill' can mean he was unwell, or that he vomited as in 'he was ill all over the floor'

[Arnauti]

Yes. But mår illa cannot mean that. To vomit is att spy or att kräkas in Swedish.

What is the difference between "Känner" and "mår"?

[Jean564934]

Warning! In British English sick is not at all ambiguous when used with the verb feel. I feel sick/I'm feeling sick means I feel nauseous and I may be sick ie vomit at any moment... If you feel unwell in a different way, you might say I feel ill/I'm not feeling well/I'm feeling a bit rough.

[Nikolai_Novikov]

Why not "i am sick"? If they care about "feel" then strictly speaking it would be "i feel bad"

[cathmach]

As far as I know, "må illa" is used specifically for talking about feeling nausea. If I hear "I feel bad" that could mean that I am unhappy or unwell in some other way.
For me "I feel sick" means that I am nauseous but "I am sick" just means I am unwell in some unspecified way.

[devalanteriel]

You could very well be feeling nauseous without being sick.

[HoroTanuki]

I think in English "I feel sick" or "I'm gonna be sick" specifically refers to nausea

[Flutterby42]

In English "I'm gonna be sick" definitely refers to nausea, but not so "I feel sick." I would say that if I'm coming down with a cold or had a fever.

[HoroTanuki]

dunno, this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nausea says "feeling sick" is nausea. I would say "I am sick" if I had a cold or something

[Dan181291]

Native speaker here. This is generally right on. (I upvoted you). Basically, 'feeling sick' is a little ambiguous. 'Feeling sick to your stomach' makes it clear that you're referring to nausea, although that's a little ambiguous too, because you could be meaning a stomachache. 'I am sick' is also ambiguous.

[Antti22]

Why is "i am not feeling well" not accepted but "I do not feel well" is? I fail to see the difference.

[Chaos03]

So if I want to say that I have an illness, I have to use "jag är sjuk" and "jag mår illa" would mean that I'm not feeling well at this specific moment ?
