sakta

Adjective

 * 1) slow

Adverb

 * 1) slowly

Usage notes
Could imply "gently" in some contexts, similar to how "simmer slowly" is a common collocation, but the base meaning is just "slow"/"slowly."

Verb

 * 1)  to slow down

Usage notes
"Sakta in" is often used for slowing down for a particular reason (often when approaching something), like when preparing to make a turn. The difference from the more general "sakta ner" is very subtle though, and they are interchangeable. "Sakta av" is more common for abstract things, like the economy.
