tidssætte

Tidssætte is a Danish verb meaning to set the time for something; to schedule when an event, task, or action should occur. It denotes the act of determining a specific time at which something will take place, often as part of planning or coordination.

It is used in both formal and informal contexts, including business, project planning, media scheduling, travel arrangements, and calendar management. The verb takes a direct object referring to the thing being scheduled, and it is typically followed by a time expression or a clock time. Examples: Jeg tidssætter mødet til klokken 13.00. Virksomheden tidssatte lanceringen til næste måned.

Etymology: formed from tid (time) and sætte (to set), aligning with similar compounding patterns in Danish. In usage, speakers may choose among tidssætte, planlægge, or arrangere depending on nuance, formality, and context. Tidssætte emphasizes fixing a concrete time for an event, rather than merely outlining tasks or plans.
