opbygges

Opbygges is a Danish verb form that means “is built up” or “is being built up.” It is the present passive form of the verb opbygge, which implies the process of constructing, developing, or accumulating something. The form is used when the actor performing the action is unknown, general, or not stated, and the focus is on the result or process.

In usage, opbygges can refer to both physical construction and abstract growth. Physical examples include buildings, infrastructure, or landscapes being developed. Abstract usage covers aspects such as trust, capacity, or a system gaining strength or coherence over time. The agent can be specified with af to indicate who performs the action, for example: Huset opbygges af lokale håndværkere (The house is being built by local craftsmen).

Grammatical notes: opbygges is the synthetic present passive form, common in written and formal Danish. The same idea can also be expressed with a periphrastic passive, such as bliver opbygget, depending on stylistic preference or emphasis. The term comes from the verb opbygge, with op- serving as a prefix that conveys the sense of building up or developing.
