inngår

Inngår is the present tense form of the Norwegian verb inngå. It denotes the act of entering into something or becoming part of something, and is commonly used in legal, financial, and everyday language. The meaning varies with context, including entering into an agreement or being included as a component of a larger whole.

Two common senses are practiced in usage. First, to enter into a contract or commitment: Partene inngår en avtale (the parties enter into an agreement). Second, to be included or to form part of something: Prisen inngår i tilbudet (the price is included in the offer). The phrase inngå i can also indicate inclusion within a list, package, or set.

Grammar and conjugation: The infinitive is å inngå. In present tense you say inngår (jeg inngår, du inngår, han inngår). The simple past is inngikk, and the past participle is inngått, used in perfect constructions such as avtalen er inngått or avtalen har inngått. Norwegian verbs are not conjugated for person, so the form remains the same across subjects.

Etymology and sense development: The form derives from a combination of inn (in) and gå (to go), reflecting a sense of going into or entering into an arrangement or inclusion. The word is widely attested in formal and administrative contexts, but can also appear in everyday statements about what is included or what a partnership entails.
