Gebruiksvolle

Gebruiksvolle is a Dutch adjective that translates to "useful" or "of use" in English. It describes something that serves a practical purpose, is helpful, or has a beneficial application. The word is derived from the Dutch verb "gebruiken," meaning "to use," and the suffix "-vol," which indicates abundance or fullness.

The adjective "gebruiksvolle" is commonly employed in everyday Dutch conversation and writing to assess the value or utility of an object, tool, piece of information, or even a person's contribution. For instance, one might refer to a "gebruiksvolle tip" (useful tip), a "gebruiksvolle website" (useful website), or a "gebruiksvolle vaardigheid" (useful skill).

When something is described as "gebruiksvolle," it implies that it can be effectively employed to achieve a specific goal or to alleviate a problem. The opposite of "gebruiksvolle" would be "nutteloze" (useless) or "onbruikbare" (unusable). The concept of usefulness is central to many aspects of life, from the design of everyday objects to the development of complex technologies. "Gebruiksvolle" encapsulates this idea of practical applicability and beneficial function.
