Garanteras

Garanteras is the present passive form of the Swedish verb garantera, meaning to guarantee. In this construction, the subject of the sentence is the thing that is guaranteed, and the guarantor is often implicit or stated with a prepositional phrase such as av (by). Garantera can be used in legal, commercial, and consumer contexts to indicate that a product, service, or obligation is covered by a guarantee or warranty.

Usage and context:

In contracts and warranties, garanteras is used to express that a guarantee applies. Examples include: Produkten garanteras mot fabrikationsfel i två år. This means the product is guaranteed against manufacturing defects for two years. Another example is: Garantin garanteras av tillverkaren under villkoren i kontraktet. Here the guarantee is provided by the manufacturer under the contract terms. The passive form emphasizes the guarantee itself rather than the person or entity providing it.

Relation to related terms:

The noun garan­t was historically used for a guarantor or warranty, and the stem is related to the English word guarantee.

Notes:

Garanteras can appear in formal texts and is appropriate for stating obligations or entitlements in Swedish. As with many legal phrases, clarity about who provides the guarantee and under which conditions is important for precise interpretation.
