Mottagarnas

Mottagarnas is the genitive plural form of mottagare, a Swedish noun meaning recipient or receiver. The form is used to indicate that something belongs to or concerns a group of recipients. In practice, mottagarnas appears in formal or administrative texts when rights, duties, information, or responsibilities are attributed to recipients as a collective.

The term is most common in government documents, welfare or grant procedures, and other contexts where a distinction is made between the sender or authorities and the people who receive a service or benefit. It is not a proper noun, but a grammatical form that signals possession or association with a group.

Examples of usage include phrases such as mottagarnas rättigheter (the recipients’ rights), mottagarnas integritet (the recipients’ privacy), and mottagarnas behov (the recipients’ needs). The singular possessive form opposite to mottagarnas is mottagarens (the recipient’s).

Notes on grammar: mottagare is plural as mottagare, with the genitive plural formed as mottagarnas. The construction is used without an explicit possessive determiner in many Swedish sentences, relying on the -arnas form to convey ownership and definite reference to the group of recipients.
