framkommer

Framkommer is a Swedish verb meaning to emerge, become evident, or come to light. It is commonly used in formal writing and journalism to indicate that information has been revealed or become known.

The verb is a compound formed from fram- (forward) and komma (to come). The infinitive is framkomma. Its present tense is framkommer, as in Det framkommer i rapporten att… (“It emerges in the report that…”). The past tense is framkom, and the present perfect uses the past participle framkommit (Det har framkommit att… “It has emerged that…”). The present participle is framkommande.

Use and register: Framkommer is typically employed in analytic, legal, academic, or journalistic contexts. It conveys that findings, observations, or conclusions have been established through investigation, calculation, or analysis. It is often used with det as the grammatical subject and followed by a clause introduced by att.

Examples:

- Det framkommer i studien att eleverna förbättrade sina resultat. (The study shows that the students improved their results.)

- Det framkom i rapporten att flera faktorer spelade in. (It emerged in the report that several factors played a role.)

- Genom analysen framkommer att det finns flera möjliga förklaringar. (Through the analysis it becomes evident that there are several possible explanations.)

Related terms include framgå, which also means to be evident or to appear, but framkomma and framkommer emphasize the process of information becoming known. Framkommer tends to appear in neutral, informative prose rather than informal speech.
