Færdiggøres

Færdiggøres is the present passive form of the Danish verb færdiggøre, meaning to complete or to finish. It describes a process in which something is currently being brought to completion. The construction is commonly used in formal and technical contexts to indicate ongoing progress rather than a final state.

Etymology and meaning: The verb færdiggøre is a compound built from færdig, meaning ready or finished, and gøre, meaning to do or to make. Together they convey the act of making something ready or finished. The present passive form færdiggøres expresses that the completion is in progress, rather than completed.

Usage and examples: Færdiggøres appears in contexts such as construction, publishing, software development, and project management. Examples include: Opgaven færdiggøres i løbet af dagen. (The task is being completed during the day.) Projektet færdiggøres snart. (The project is being completed soon.) In contrast to this ongoing form, Danish also uses færdiggjort for completed results in the perfect or passive sense, as in: Opgaven er færdiggjort. (The task has been completed.) The passive can also be expressed with bliver or blev in other tenses, for example Opgaven bliver færdiggjort (present) or Opgaven blev færdiggjort (past).

Grammatical notes: Færdiggøres is a present passive form; the active present is færdiggør. The past participle is færdiggjort, used with have/has or be/was to form perfect or pluperfect constructions. Related terms include færdiggørelse (the act of completing) and færdiggjort (completed).
