angivelse

Angivelse is a Danish noun that denotes an indication, statement, instruction, or specification that points out or specifies something. The term is broad and used in various formal and technical contexts.

In everyday and administrative language, angivelse often refers to information provided to guide action or interpretation. For example, a price indication (prisangivelse) or a dosage indication (dosisangivelse) on a product label or form. It can also denote a reference or citation when listing sources, such as a source indication (kildeangivelse) in a report or article.

In pharmacology and healthcare, angivelse commonly appears in relation to instructions or recommendations, especially regarding how a medication should be used or administered. The associated terms emphasize practical guidance rather than mere description.

In legal, commercial, or academic contexts, angivelse can refer to a stated claim or assertion, or to the act of specifying requirements, terms, or characteristics. It may appear in contracts, technical specifications, or methodological sections of research to indicate what is required or provided.

Etymology and usage notes: angivelse derives from the verb angive, meaning to indicate, specify, or give. The noun form is used across formal Danish to denote a particular indication or reference. It is often combined with other words to form compound terms such as prisangivelse, dosisangivelse, or kildeangivelse, reflecting its role as a general descriptor of information presented to the reader or user.

Overall, angivelse functions as a versatile, formal term for information that guides, specifies, or references something in Danish discourse.
