påsens

Påsens is the genitive form of the Swedish noun påse, meaning a bag or sack. It is used to indicate possession or association with a bag, and appears in phrases describing characteristics or contents of a specific bag.

Inflection and usage

- Indefinite singular: en påse

- Definite singular: påsen

- Genitive singular: påsens (the bag's)

- Indefinite plural: påsar

- Definite plural: påsarna

- Genitive plural: påsarnas (the bags' or of the bags)

The possessive form påsens is created by adding -s to the definite singular form. For example, "påsens färg" means the bag's color, and "påsens innehåll" means the bag's contents. Note that this is a grammatical form rather than a standalone lexical item; it is used when discussing attributes of a specific bag.

Examples

- Pålens färg är blå. (The bag's color is blue.)

- Vi öppnade påsens innehåll och hittade två böcker. (We opened the bag's contents and found two books.)
