skivornas

Skivornas is a Swedish genitive form used to indicate possession or a relationship to multiple discs, such as records or vinyl records. The base word is skiva, meaning a disk, plate, or record. In ordinary plural, the indefinite form is skivor, and the definite plural is skivorna, meaning “the records.”

The genitive plural of this noun is skivornas, formed by adding the possessive -s to the definite plural. This construction functions similarly to English the records’ or of the records, and it is used to attribute a property or relation to the entire group of records. For example, skivornas omslag means “the records’ covers,” and skivornas innehåll refers to “the records’ contents.”

Usage and nuances:

- Skivornas can modify a following noun to express ownership or association with multiple records (e.g., skivornas låtar, the records’ songs).

- The form is common in written Swedish and in discussions of music history, collection catalogs, and related contexts.

- It mirrors the general Swedish pattern where the genitive plural is formed by taking the definite plural and adding -s (the pattern also appears with other nouns, such as bilarnas ägare for “the cars’ owners”).

In summary, skivornas is not a separate noun but the genitive plural form of skivorna, used to denote possession or association by a group of records in Swedish. See also Swedish genitive formation and the noun skiva.
