Interaction with other inmates

socializing


Explanation:
This would give you a noun and verb if needed and has that positive idea as in the Swedish definition.

Reference information:
Samsittning

På ett häkte är möjligheten att vistas tillsammans med andra intagna begränsad. I vissa fall kan du under dagtid sitta tillsammans med någon av de medintagna. För dig med restriktioner kan åklagaren under vissa omständigheter besluta samsittning.
