indeholder

Indeholder is a Danish verb form that means to contain, include, or comprise. It is the present tense, third-person singular form of the verb at indeholde and describes that something holds or comprises other elements, information, or constituents within it. The word is commonly used in everyday language as well as in technical and legal contexts.

The term is often found in product labeling, documentation, catalogs, and descriptions of data or content. It is used to state what is included inside a package, document, or system. For example, a food product might be described as “produktet indeholder gluten og mælk,” or a report might say, “Denne rapport indeholder data fra 2023.” In software and information contexts, one might encounter phrases like “Filen indeholder flere tabeller” or “Denne side indeholder vejledning.”

Indeholder is typically a transitive verb, requiring a direct object that names what is contained. It is closely related in meaning to synonyms such as omfatter or består af, and it is distinguished from the related noun indhold, which refers to the content itself rather than the act of containing. In many contexts, indeholder can be followed by lists of items, ingredients, or components, making it a practical term for clarifying what is present within a larger entity.
