mottakers

Mottaker is a Norwegian noun meaning recipient or receiver—the person or organization that receives something such as money, information, goods, or services. It is used across many contexts to designate the end point of a transfer or communication.

The standard plural form in Norwegian is mottakere. In compound expressions, mottaker forms base components such as postmottaker (mail recipient) or mottaker av betaling (recipient of payment). In formal or legal language, the term is common in phrases that identify who benefits from a grant, subsidy, refund, or obligation, as well as in administrative and regulatory contexts.

In everyday usage, mottaker often appears in relation to mail, packages, or digital communications: for example, a post office or a digital inbox may list the mottakere of a message or shipment. In social security, taxation, and welfare systems, the term denotes individuals or entities entitled to benefits or payments. In technology and telecommunications, mottaker can refer to the device or node that receives signals or data, such as a radio receiver or data sink.

In data protection and privacy contexts, the concept of mottakere is used to describe third parties or organizations to whom personal data are disclosed, outside the original controller. Regulations may require that recipients of data have appropriate safeguards.

Note that the form mottakers is not standard Norwegian; the correct plural is mottakere. Mottakers can appear as a nonstandard or anglicized spelling or as a proper noun in some contexts, but it is not the accepted plural in Norwegian grammar.
