Gennemføeligt

Gennemføeligt is a Danish adjective meaning capable of being carried out, feasible, or doable. It is used to describe plans, proposals or actions that can realistically be implemented given current resources, time, technology, and regulatory conditions. The term is common in project management, policy analysis, urban planning, engineering, and research design.

Etymology and nuance: The word derives from the verb gennemføre (to carry out or implement) with the suffix -eligt, yielding a sense of practical viability. Gennemføeligt thus emphasizes that something can be executed in a real-world setting, not only in theory.

Usage and related terms: In Danish, gennemføeligt often appears in formal and technical contexts where feasibility is a key consideration. It can contrast with projects that are technically possible but economically or logistically infeasible. Related terms include gennemførbarhed or gennemførbarhedsvurdering (feasibility or feasibility assessment), and the English equivalents feasible or practicable. When translating, through-context matters: gennemføeligt aligns with what can be realistically achieved rather than merely imagined.

Examples: A typical sentence is “Projektet er gennemføeligt inden for tidsrammen og budgettet.” In planning documents, analysts may present a gennemførlighedsvurdering to justify proceeding to the next development stage. Overall, gennemføeligt is a central term in Danish discourse on practical viability and implementation planning.
