inmatningens

Inmatningens is the genitive form of the Swedish noun inmatning, which means input or data entry. It is used to indicate possession or a relationship to the input in question, such as characteristics, contents, or quality belonging to the input.

Morphology and formation: The base noun inmatning is indefinite as en inmatning. The definite form is inmatningen (the input). The genitive form, inmatningens (the input’s), is formed by adding the possessive -s to the definite form. This pattern is typical for Swedish nouns where the possessive is marked with -s on the definite form.

Usage and context: Inmatningens appears mainly in written Swedish, particularly in technical, scientific, or formal texts that discuss attributes of input data or user input. It can refer to any aspect associated with an input, such as its quality, integrity, or security. Examples include phrases like inmatningens kvalitet (the input’s quality) or inmatningens säkerhet (the input’s security). The term may occur in documentation, requirements specifications, or analytical discussions about data entry processes.

Relation to related terms: The uninflected form inmatning denotes the concept of an input. The definite form inmatningen is used when referring to a specific input, while inmatningens marks possession or association. Plural forms exist (inmatningar for inputs; inmatningarnas or inmatningars for possessive of plural), but the genitive singular inmatningens is the most common form encountered in standard Swedish usage.
