nybildas

Nybildas is a Swedish verb form used in passive constructions to indicate that something is being formed anew or has recently taken on a new form. It serves as the present passive of the verb nybilda, and is commonly found in scientific, historical, and descriptive texts. The meaning depends on context, but generally describes processes that produce a new instance of something that did not exist in the same form before.

Etymology: The word combines the prefix ny- meaning “new” with bilda, meaning “to form” or “to create.” In usage, nybildas denotes an ongoing or recent formation, for example in natural or social processes. The form is used with subjects that are plural or singular in the present tense.

Forms and usage: As a present passive, nybildas agrees with its subject in number. Related forms include nybildades (past passive) and nybildats (supine/past participle used with auxiliary verbs). In Swedish, speakers may prefer active constructions where appropriate; for example, “Nya ord bildas i språket” instead of forcing passive in all cases.

Examples:

- Nya ord nybildas kontinuerligt i svenskan.

- Nya öar nybildas längs kusten genom sedimentation och vulkanisk aktivitet.

Related concepts include nybildning (the process of forming anew), bildning (formation), and various types of formation processes in science and linguistics.
