lider
"Lider" in Swedish means "suffers" in English.
In this sentence, 'lider' is used to mean 'suffers' in a physical or emotional sense.
Han lider av en kronisk sjukdom.
He suffers from a chronic illness.
Here, 'lider' is used to mean 'passing' or 'progressing,' often in the context of time.

Time is passing and we need to hurry.
In this case, 'lider' once again denotes suffering, particularly in an emotional or silent manner.
