uttaget

Uttaget is a Swedish noun that denotes the act of taking out or the thing that has been taken out. It is the definite form of the noun uttag, and it appears in several different contexts in everyday language and technical usage. The meaning tends to depend on the surrounding words and the field of reference.

One common meaning is the electrical outlet. In Swedish, the term uttaget appears in compounds such as vägguttaget, referring to a specific power socket. In ordinary speech you might say Sätt i sladden i uttaget, meaning to plug the cord into the outlet.

Another frequent sense is a withdrawal or drawing, especially from financial accounts. Ett uttag can refer to a cash withdrawal or a similar removal of funds. The definite ut taget would be used when speaking about a particular withdrawal, for example Det största uttaget i månaden, or Jag gjorde ett uttag från kontot.

A broader usage covers removal or extraction of goods or resources. In business or mining contexts, uttag can denote drawing out materials or assets, such as ett uttag ur bolagets tillgångar or uttag av råvaror.

Distinctions from related terms are common. Uttdrag refers to an extract or excerpt from a document or text, not an item removed physically; ut tage is about taking out or withdrawing, often in concrete or financial senses.

In summary, uttaget primarily denotes a specific taken-out item or withdrawal, with specialized uses in electricity, finance, and resource extraction.
