återføres

Återföres is a Swedish verb form derived from återföra, meaning to bring back, restore, or reintroduce something to a previous state, place, or condition. The prefix åter- signals repetition or return, combined with föra "to lead" or "to bring." In modern Swedish, återföres appears primarily in formal or administrative language and in passive constructions, indicating that an item is being returned or restored by a process or by another actor.

Common usages include archives and records management, where a document may återföres to its original file, category, or archive in an information system; in conservation or ecological planning, discussions about reestablishing populations sometimes use återföres to describe moving organisms back to prior habitats, though återintroduktion is the more typical term for reintroduction. In legal or regulatory texts, provisions or instruments can återföres to earlier formulations during revisions.

Related terms include återinförande (the act of reintroducing) and återställning (restoration). See also återintroduktion and arkivering.

Note: The meaning is largely context-dependent; when used, the exact sense—returning, restoring, or reintroducing—should be clear from the surrounding text.
