praktiserast

Praktiserast is a present passive form of the Norwegian-Nynorsk verb praktisere, meaning to practice or to implement. It is used to describe that an action, policy, or rule is being carried out or applied by someone or by institutions.

Grammatical notes: In Nynorsk, the present passive can be expressed with the synthetic form praktiserast. This form is typically used in formal or written contexts. The corresponding Bokmål form is praktiseres, which uses the auxiliary blir in the present tense in many sentences (for example, Dette blir praktisert). Thus, praktiserast marks the Nynorsk present passive specifically.

Usage and context: Praktiserast commonly appears in regulatory, academic, and public-sector texts where actions or policies are described as being put into practice. It reflects events or practices that are ongoing at the time of speaking or writing. The term is part of standard Nynorsk vocabulary and is typically found in neutral, descriptive prose.

Examples: Dette blir praktiserast i fleire land. Det blir praktiserast å evaluere programmet kvart år.
