RAYS-fay-ber[ˈreːsˌfeːber]
the fizzing nerves of the hours before a journey
Closest in English: jitters, butterflies, nerves. None of them covers it.
Res is journey and feber is fever, and Swedish means it physically: the bag repacked twice, the passport checked again at midnight. The word covers only the hours before departure. English lends the feeling its butterflies, which also turn out for exams.

The most common guesses for the translation were 'anxiety' and 'anxious'. Close, but not it.
