When we talk about money, especially big amounts of money, we often use the verb bevilge. It means to officially give or approve money for a specific purpose. Think of it like a government or a large organization deciding to set aside funds for a project or a person.
For example, if the government decides to give money to build a new school, they would bevilge funds for that school. Or if a company approves money for an employee's training, they would bevilge those funds.
It's a formal way of saying that money is being allocated or granted. So, if you see bevilge, think 'money being officially given'.
When we talk about money being given out for a specific purpose, the Norwegian verb you'll often hear is bevilge. It means to grant or allocate funds, and it's frequently used in official contexts, like a government body deciding to give money to a project, or a company allocating a budget.
Think of it as setting aside or formally approving money for something. So, if a municipality decides to fund a new park, they would 'bevilge penger' for the park. It's about a formal decision to make funds available.

§ What 'Bevilge' Means
- Definition
- To grant or allocate funds. This verb is primarily used when talking about official decisions to provide money for a specific purpose.
'Bevilge' is a common Norwegian verb you'll encounter, especially in formal contexts like government, business, or organizational settings. It specifically means to grant or allocate funds, almost always referring to a decision made by an authority or a body with the power to distribute money. Think of it as a formal 'to approve and provide money for.'
It's not a word you'd typically use if your friend lends you ten kroner for coffee. Instead, you'd use it when a parliament approves a budget, a company allocates money for a new project, or a foundation grants money for research.
§ When to Use 'Bevilge'
You'll mostly see 'bevilge' in news articles, official reports, political discussions, or when talking about finances in larger organizations. Here are some common scenarios:
- Governmental Decisions: When the government or parliament decides to spend money on public services, infrastructure, or social programs.
- Organizational Budgets: When a company board or a non-profit organization allocates funds for internal projects, departments, or external initiatives.
- Grants and Scholarships: When institutions or foundations provide financial support for research, education, or artistic endeavors.
Let's look at some examples to make this clearer.
Stortinget bevilget mer penger til utdanning. (The Parliament granted more money for education.)
Styret har bevilget midler til det nye prosjektet. (The board has allocated funds for the new project.)
Kommunen vil bevilge støtte til lokale idrettslag. (The municipality will grant support to local sports clubs.)
Notice how the subject doing the 'bevilge' is always an entity with the authority to make such financial decisions.
While 'bevilge' specifically means granting *funds*, you might sometimes hear it used slightly more broadly in a metaphorical sense, but its core meaning remains financial. For example, a committee might 'bevilge tid' (grant time) to a discussion, but this is less common and still carries the sense of formal allocation. Stick to financial contexts for now.
Understanding 'bevilge' is key to comprehending Norwegian news and official communications, especially if you're interested in politics, economics, or public administration in Norway. It's a formal and precise word for a formal and precise action.
§ Understanding 'bevilge'
The Norwegian verb 'bevilge' is a useful word to know, especially if you're dealing with anything related to finances, government, or organizations. It means 'to grant' or 'to allocate funds'. Think of it as formally deciding to give money for a specific purpose.
- DEFINITION
- To officially give money for a specific purpose; to approve the allocation of funds.
This verb is often used when an authority, like a government, a board, or a committee, decides to provide financial support for a project, an organization, or an individual.
§ Basic Sentence Structure
The most common structure with 'bevilge' is straightforward: Subject + bevilge + direct object (funds) + preposition + indirect object (recipient/purpose).
Regjeringen bevilget 10 millioner kroner til prosjektet.
The government granted 10 million kroner to the project.
De har bevilget mer penger til forskning.
They have allocated more money for research.
§ Common Prepositions with 'bevilge'
You'll often see 'bevilge' paired with certain prepositions. These help clarify who or what the funds are being granted to or for.
- til (to/for): This is the most common preposition, indicating the recipient or purpose.
Kommunen bevilget midler til den nye skolen.
The municipality granted funds for the new school.

- for (for): Less common than 'til' in this context, but can also be used to indicate purpose.

The money was granted to improve the roads. (Literally: for to improve the roads)
§ Passive Voice with 'bevilge'

En stor sum ble bevilget til kultursektoren.
A large sum was granted to the cultural sector.

They applied for a grant from the state.

We hope to get funds allocated for next year.
§ Understanding the Nuance of 'Bevilge'
Many English speakers learning Norwegian struggle with 'bevilge' because its direct translation, 'to grant' or 'to allocate,' doesn't fully capture its specific usage. In Norwegian, 'bevilge' almost exclusively refers to the granting or allocation of funds, resources, or official permissions, often by an authority. It's not a general word for 'to grant' in the sense of granting a wish or granting a favor to a friend. Let's look at some common pitfalls.
§ Mistake 1: Using 'Bevilge' for Non-Monetary Grants
A frequent error is using 'bevilge' when the 'grant' isn't about money or official resources. For example, if you want to say 'I granted her request,' 'bevilge' is incorrect.
- Wrong Usage
- Jeg bevilget hennes forespørsel. (Incorrect: 'bevilge' is not for personal requests)
Instead, you would use a verb like 'innvilge' or 'godta'.
- Correct Usage
- Jeg innvilget hennes forespørsel. (I granted her request.)
Regjeringen bevilget midler til prosjektet. (The government granted funds for the project.)
§ Mistake 2: Confusing 'Bevilge' with 'Gi' (To Give)
While 'bevilge' involves giving, it's a specific kind of giving. You wouldn't use 'bevilge' when you simply give something to someone.
- Wrong Usage
- Jeg bevilget ham en gave. (Incorrect: You 'give' a gift, you don't 'grant' it in this context.)
The correct verb here is the much more general 'gi'.
- Correct Usage
- Jeg ga ham en gave. (I gave him a gift.)
Stortinget skal bevilge mer penger til forskning. (The Parliament will allocate more money for research.)
§ Mistake 3: Overgeneralizing the Subject of 'Bevilge'
The subject performing the action of 'bevilge' is almost always an official body or a person in a position of authority regarding funds or permits. Using an informal subject can sound very odd.
- Wrong Usage
- Min mor bevilget meg lommepenger. (Incorrect: Your mother 'gives' you pocket money, she doesn't 'grant' it in an official capacity.)
Again, 'gi' is the appropriate verb for informal giving.
- Correct Usage
- Min mor ga meg lommepenger. (My mother gave me pocket money.)
Kommunen bevilget byggetillatelse. (The municipality granted the building permit.)
§ Summary of 'Bevilge' Usage
To avoid these mistakes, remember these key points about 'bevilge':
- It almost always relates to the granting or allocation of money, official resources, or formal permissions.
- The action is performed by an authority (government, committee, organization).
- It implies a formal decision or approval process.
When in doubt, if the 'grant' isn't official, monetary, or from an authority, you're likely looking for a different verb like 'gi' (to give) or 'innvilge' (to grant a request/application). Practice these distinctions, and you'll master 'bevilge' in no time!

formalسهل الخلط
Often confused with words related to 'approve' or 'allow' in a general sense, but 'bevilge' specifically refers to the allocation of money or resources.
'Bevilge' implies a formal decision to provide financial support, while other words like 'tillate' (to allow) or 'godkjenne' (to approve) have broader meanings that don't necessarily involve money.
Stortinget *bevilget* penger til det nye sykehuset. (The Parliament *granted* money for the new hospital.)
Can be confused with 'bevilge' because both involve giving something, but 'tildeling' is a broader term for an assignment or award, which may or may not involve funds.
'Tildeling' can refer to a grant, award, or assignment of tasks/resources, not necessarily financial. 'Bevilge' is always about financial allocation.
Hun fikk en *tildeling* av forskningsmidler. (She received an *allocation* of research funds.)
Sounds similar to 'bevilge' and also means 'to grant' or 'to approve,' leading to confusion.
'Innvilge' is more general and can refer to granting a request, an application, or a permit. While it can include financial requests, 'bevilge' is exclusively about funds.
Søknaden hennes om stipend ble *innvilget*. (Her application for a scholarship was *granted*.)
Meaning 'support' or 'subsidy', it's related to providing financial help, but isn't the act of formal allocation.
'Støtte' is the general concept of support, often financial. 'Bevilge' is the active, formal decision to provide those funds.
Regjeringen gir *støtte* til kulturlivet. (The government gives *support* to the cultural sector.)
Meaning 'to finance', it's directly about money, but 'finansiere' is the act of providing funds, while 'bevilge' is the decision to do so.
'Finansiere' focuses on the act of paying for something. 'Bevilge' is the official act of approving and setting aside money for a specific purpose.
