Mehrwöchigen

Mehrwöchigen is the declined form of the German adjective mehrwöchig, which means lasting several weeks or spanning multiple weeks. It is used to describe durations, periods, events, or intervals that extend over more than one week. The term appears in formal, scientific, medical, educational, and planning contexts, as well as in everyday descriptions of time frames.

Grammatically, mehrwöchig is an attributive adjective and takes endings according to German declension rules. With a definite article or other determiner, the endings vary by case and gender, for example: der mehrwöchige Zeitraum (nominative singular, masculine), des mehrwöchigen Zeitraums (genitive singular), dem mehrwöchigen Zeitraum (dative singular), die mehrwöchigen Zeiträume (nominative plural). Without a determiner, strong declension yields forms such as mehrwöchige Zeiträume (nominative plural) or mehrwöchigen Zeiträumen (dative plural). The specific form mehrwöchigen is most commonly seen in phrases like in mehrwöchigen Abständen or mehrere mehrwöchigen Studienabschnitten.

Common usages include mehrwöchige Studien, mehrwöchige Therapien, oder mehrwöchige Projekte, as well as longer planning horizons like ein mehrwöchiger Zeitraum. The term can also pair with nouns denoting intervals, such as mehrwöchigen Intervallen, to indicate repetition or scheduling over several weeks. In short, mehrwöchigen functions as a standard attributive form to convey time spans that exceed one week, adaptable to standard German inflection patterns.
