lösungs

Lösungs is not a stand-alone term in standard German. It designates the bound morpheme Lösungs-, derived from Lösung (solution, resolution, or the act of solving). This form appears almost exclusively within compound nouns and adjectives, where it links the base Lösung to another element.

In practice, Lösungs- is found in a range of technical terms such as Lösungsweg (path to a solution or method), Lösungsprinzip (principle of solving), Lösungsansatz (approach to solving), Lösungsformel (formula for a solution), Lösungsraum (solution space), and Lösungsmenge (solution set). It also occurs in chemistry with words like Lösungsmittel (solvent), where the linking -s- joins Lösung with Mittel. The exact meaning of the compound reflects the general sense of Lösung: the answer, method, or result to a problem or calculation.

As a standalone lemma, Lösungs is not standard; when referring to “the solution” in German prose, one uses Lösung (singular) or Lösungen (plural). Thus Lösungs- is best treated as a productive stem used to form related terms, rather than a separate dictionary entry.

In other languages or contexts, lösungs may appear only as part of longer words; it is not used in English except when quoted or used to illustrate German morphology.
