Tidsbegrænsede

Tidsbegrænsede is a Danish adjective meaning “time-limited” or “having a finite duration.” It is used to describe anything whose validity or availability is restricted to a specified period, such as licences, contracts, offers, or access rights. The base form is tidsbegrænset in the singular, while tidsbegrænsede is the plural form.

The term is common in legal, commercial, and information-technology contexts. Common usages include tidsbegrænset licens (time-limited license), tidsbegrænsede tilbud (time-limited offers), and tidsbegrænset adgang (time-limited access). In contracts, terms may be described as tidsbegrænsede, with an expiry date or a fixed duration (gyldighedsperiode). In IT and digital services, time-limited can refer to access tokens, session timeouts, or trial periods.

Etymology: formed from tid (time) and begrænse (to limit) with the adjectival suffix -ede, yielding a plural form tidsbegrænsede for nouns in plural.

Grammatical note: singular neuter or common nouns typically use tidsbegrænset; plural nouns use tidsbegrænsede. The use of the term emphasizes that the entity does not persist indefinitely.
