Museernas

Museernas is the genitive plural form of the Swedish noun museer (museums). It is used to indicate possession or relation to multiple museums. In Swedish, the possessive for plural nouns is formed by adding the suffix -s to the definite plural, so museerna (the museums) becomes museernas (the museums’).

The term functions as a grammatical form rather than a separate concept. It appears in phrases describing what belongs to or relates to several museums, for example: museernas samlingar (the museums’ collections), museernas historia (the museums’ history), or museernas erbjudanden (the museums’ offerings).

Usage considerations include that the possessive suffix -s is attached to the definite plural form, and that the corresponding singular possessive is museets or museerns, depending on the noun’s definite singular form. The form is common in Swedish cultural and academic writing when discussing institutions collectively.

See also: museer (museums), museerna (the museums), museets (the museum’s). The construction is typical of Swedish grammar for indicating ownership across multiple entities and does not require an apostrophe.
