kassörska

Swedish

Etymology

From kassör (“treasurer”) +‎ -ska.

Noun

kassörska c

1. a (usually female) cashier

Usage notes

Swedish lacks a widely agreed-upon gender-neutral term for a cashier. For a male cashier, any of kassabiträde, kassapersonal (referring to cashiers collectively in the plural), kassörska (used in a gender-neutral sense), or kassör (which however originally means a treasurer) might be heard.
