utførast

Utførast is a Norwegian verb form that marks the present passive voice of the verb utføre, meaning to perform or carry out. It is used primarily in Nynorsk, one of the official written standards of Norwegian. In Bokmål, the present passive is typically expressed as utføres. Utførast conveys that an action is being carried out by someone or something, without naming the agent.

The form is common in formal or official language, such as regulatory texts, procedural descriptions, and reports, where actions are described as being completed or carried out. It can be used with a subject referring to an action or process. For example, Tiltaket vert utførast i samsvar med planen. Prosedyren vert utførast av eksperter.

Etymology and related terms: The word derives from the verb utføre, itself meaning to perform or execute. In nynorsk, the present passive forms like utførast are part of a broader pattern that expresses passive voice without relying on a separate auxiliary in some contexts. The corresponding Bokmål form is utføres. See also: utføre, nynorsk, bokmål.
