rengjøres

Rengjøres is the present passive form of the Norwegian verb rengjøre, meaning to clean, purify, or restore cleanliness. It indicates that the subject is being cleaned by someone or by a process, rather than performing the cleaning itself. The form is commonly used in written Norwegian to describe procedures, maintenance, sanitation, and similar processes, and it appears in manuals, notices, and official reports.

In Norwegian, the present passive can be formed in two main ways. One is the synthetic form with the suffix -es attached to the finite verb, as in rengjøres (is cleaned). The other is the periphrastic form using the auxiliary blir or ble plus a past participle, as in blir rengjort (is cleaned) or ble rengjort (was cleaned). The choice between these constructions depends on style and register; rengjøres is typical in formal or impersonal statements, while blir rengjort or ble rengjort is common in everyday or narrative contexts.

Examples of usage include: Rommet rengjøres hver dag av renholdsavdelingen. Vannet rengjøres i renseanlegget før distribusjon. I offentlige instruksjoner omtales ofte prosesser som må rengjøres regelmessig for å opprettholde hygiene og sikkerhet. Rengjøres focuses on the action of cleaning being applied to the subject, rather than who performs the cleaning.
