Ingått

Ingått is the supine, or past participle, form of the Swedish verb ingå. The verb means to be included in, to enter into, or to form part of something. In practice, ingå is frequently used in formal or legal language to indicate that an arrangement, contract, or group has been created or accepted. It is common to see ingå in phrases such as ingå i en överenskommelse or ingå i ett avtal, where something becomes part of a larger agreement or framework.

Grammatically, ingå is conjugated with auxiliary habe in perfect and pluperfect tenses, yielding har ingått or hade ingått. The simple past form of ingå is ingick. The form ingått therefore serves as the perfect participle used with ser the appropriate auxiliary to express completed action, as in Parterna har ingått ett avtal. The supine can also appear in more formal written contexts, typically in combination with relative clauses or in legal drafting.

Usage notes: ingått is most common in formal, administrative, or legal contexts. It conveys that something has been officially entered into or included within a broader construct, such as a contract, agreement, or organizational framework. The verb ingå and its participle ingått are less common in everyday parlance compared with simpler verbs, but they are standard in contract texts, official statements, and policy documents.

Examples: Parterna har ingått ett avtal om samarbete. Avtalet ingick i juli 2023. Enligt uppgörelsen ingick flera bilagor i avtalet.
