Specifikke

Specifikke is a Danish-language term that functions mainly as the plural definite inflection of the adjective specifik, meaning "specific." In Danish, adjectives inflect for number and definiteness; when used before a plural noun, the form specifikke appears, as in de specifikke detaljer, "the specific details." The capitalized form Specifikke may appear as a proper noun in titles, brand names, or project names, distinct from ordinary adjective use.

In everyday and technical writing, Specifikke is used to indicate precision and particularity. Common collocations include
