The English solicitor who a lot of people have been linking to has used the word "interrogation" for this stage of the Swedish process, which sounds more accurate. Although that's not something Americans can easily understand due to our Constitutional right against self-incrimination; if we tell the authorities to stop questioning us until we get a lawyer, they must stop, and when it comes to a trial aspersions cannot be cast on the defendant for asserting this right. As I understand it the reverse is currently true for the latter in the U.K. As for "rape", per U.K. law "offense" 4 equals it, and in general, in US law it would also count as "rape" (we've got at least 52 legal definitions of that word, for D.C., the Federal government, and each of the 50 states, so I can't make a definitive statement). "Offenses" 2-3 are apparently "sexuellt ofredande"; while obviously the first word is rather easy to translate, per Wikipedia the two words have a wide variety of possible translations, as I note here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7989290 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7989290 "sexual molestation", "sexual assault", "sexual misconduct", "sexual annoyance", "sexual unfreedom", "sexual misdemeanour", and "sexual harassment". Ugh.
