utbjudna

Utbjudna is a Swedish adjective formed from the verb utbjuda, meaning to offer or present something to someone. The word is used to describe items, proposals, opportunities, or people that have been offered or extended. It is the plural form; the corresponding singular forms are utbjuden (masculine), utbjudet (neuter).

Grammatically, utbjudna agrees with the noun it modifies in number. It is typically used in attributive position before a plural noun, as in utbjudna produkter or utbjudna erbjudanden. It can also be used predicatively, as in Produkterna var utbjudna, meaning that the offerings were available or extended.

The distinction from inbjudna is semantic: inbjudna is formed from inbjuda (to invite) and is most commonly used to describe people who have been invited to an event. Utbjudna, by contrast, generally refers to things that have been offered, proposed, or made available to someone, though there can be overlap in contexts such as offers or tender processes.

Examples: Företaget presenterade de utbjudna alternativen. De utbjudna tjänsterna ingick i kontraktet. These illustrate how utbjudna can describe offerings or proposals presented to a group.
