möjliggör

Möjliggör is a Swedish verb meaning to enable or to make something possible. It is the present tense form of the infinitive mågliggöra, with the third-person singular spelling möjlighgör. The verb is transitive and used with a direct object, for example: den nya teknologin möjliggör snabbare kommunikation. The corresponding noun form is möjliggörande, which refers to the act or process of enabling.

Etymology and related forms: the word is built from the adjective möjlig (possible) paired with the verb gör(a) “to do/make,” producing “to make possible.” The stem combines formen möjlig- with the g- and ö-r ending characteristic of the present tense in Swedish. Related forms include infinitive möjlilgöra, past tense möjliggjorde, supine möjliggjort and passive möjlighgörs in present tense.

Usage and nuance: möjliggör is commonly used in technology, policy, infrastructure, and organizational contexts to indicate that a condition, resource, or action creates the possibility for a desired outcome. It emphasizes removal of barriers, creation of prerequisites, or provision of enabling conditions rather than merely describing the outcome itself. In many cases, it can be paraphrased as “gör möjligt” or “enables.”

Examples:

- Ny finansiering möjliggör större forskningsprojekt.

- Laddinfrastruktur möjliggör längre användning av elfordon.

- Planen möjliggör snabbare implementering av tjänsten.
