Gennemførlig

Gennemførlig is a Danish adjective meaning capable of being carried out or implemented; feasible or viable in practice. It is used to describe plans, proposals, or actions that can realistically be realized within given constraints such as time, budget, and resources.

Etymology and form: The word is formed from the verb gennemføre (to carry out) plus the suffix -lig, producing an adjective that means "able to be carried out." The everyday and widely used variant is gennemførbar, while gennemførlig is also correct. The related noun is gennemførlighed, referring to feasibility or viability.

Usage: Gennemførlig is commonly applied in project planning, policy analysis, and feasibility assessments. It signals that a proposed course of action can realistically be implemented with available means. A proposal described as gennemførbart is considered achievable under the stated conditions; if not, it is deemed not gennemførligt.

Examples: In Danish, one might say: "Projektet blev vurderet som gennemførbart inden for den faste tidsramme." or "Forslaget er ikke gennemførbart under de nuværende budgetmæssige rammer." These sentences illustrate how the term functions to evaluate practical implementability.

See also: Gennemførlighed (feasibility) and gennemførbar/gennemførbart (the related adjective forms commonly used in everyday language). The term is often encountered in administrative, academic, and managerial contexts when assessing whether an idea can be put into practice.
