rapporteras

Rapporteras is the Swedish passive present form of the verb rapportera, meaning to report. In Swedish, the passive is commonly formed by adding the suffix -s to the verb, so rapporteras literally means "is reported" or "are reported." The form is used when the agent performing the reporting is unknown or unimportant, or when the emphasis is on the act of reporting itself.

Usage is common in journalism, administration, healthcare, safety and incident reporting, as well as in statistical or scientific contexts. Examples include: Händelserna rapporteras till myndigheterna varje vecka. Resultaten rapporteras i den vetenskapliga artikeln. Biverkningar bör rapporteras omedelbart. The agent can be specified with av, as in rapor teras av polisen, meaning "is reported by the police."

Grammatical notes: The corresponding past tense passive form is rapporterades, and the present perfect passive is har rapporterats. The passive form can be contrasted with the active rapportera, whose present tense is rapporterar. The list of related forms also includes rapporterat (supine) and other tense variants formed in the same passive pattern. In many formal and institutional texts, rapporteras is a frequent construction to express that information or events are being officially recorded or communicated without naming who reports them.
