Efterfrågans

Efterfrågans is the genitive singular possessive form of the Swedish noun efterfrågan, meaning demand or request. It is used to indicate ownership or association in phrases such as efterfrågans betydelse (the demand's significance) or efterfrågans pris (the price of the demand). In practice, the form appears in both everyday language and technical writing when the head noun references something related to a demand.
