tillægget

Tillägget is the definite form of the Swedish noun tillägg, meaning an addition, a supplement, or an extra item added to something else. The term encompasses both tangible items and abstract additions, such as optional services or features, and is commonly used across business, hospitality, technology, and everyday language.

In practical use, tillägget often refers to an extra charge or surcharge (tilläggsavgift) as well as to an add-on or extension (tilläggsmodul, tilläggsprogram) that adds functionality or value. Examples include a price list where “tillägget” denotes the additional cost for a service, or a software package where a feature can be purchased as a tillägg. In contracts and invoicing, the word appears on line items that represent optional enhancements or services.

Linguistically, tillägg is a neuter noun. The definite singular form is tillägget, the indefinite plural is tillägg, and the definite plural is tilläggen. The genitive form is tilläggs, used to indicate possession or association, for example, tilläggs kostnad or tilläggs pris in context, though compound forms are also common in Swedish.
