innlemme

Innlemme is a Norwegian verb meaning to include or to incorporate something within a larger whole. The action conveys making a part of a broader plan, policy, system, or structure rather than keeping it separate. Innlemme is common in formal, administrative, and technical language as well as in everyday speech.

The verb is transitive and typically takes an object representing what is being included and a target or scope expressed with phrases such as i budsjettet, i planen, or i lovverket. For example: "Foreslåtte tiltak innlemmer nye krav i budsjettet." and "Loven innlemmer nye bestemmelser i regelverket."

The noun innlemmelse means incorporation or inclusion, and the related participle is innlemmet in passive constructions such as "ble innlemmet." The present tense is innlemmer. The term is often used when describing how elements are integrated into a framework, standard, or set-up.

Related terms include inkludere and integrere, which can be used in similar contexts but with slightly different emphasis: inkludere stresses the act of including, while integrere emphasizes bringing parts into a functioning whole. Innlemme can be preferred when the focus is on embedding or subsuming elements within an existing structure.
