tilslutning en 30 segundos

  • Tilslutning: Agreement/support for ideas, or physical connection.
  • Use for gaining approval or plugging in devices.
  • Context is key: support vs. technical connection.
  • Common with 'til' for support.
Core Meaning
The Danish word 'tilslutning' primarily refers to the act of joining, connecting, or plugging something in, whether physically or metaphorically. In a broader sense, it signifies gaining agreement, support, or acceptance for an idea, plan, or movement. It implies a consensus or a positive reception from a group or individual.
Physical Connection
In technical contexts, 'tilslutning' often means a connection point or an outlet, such as an electrical socket ('stikkontakt') or a port on a device. It can also refer to the act of connecting to a network, like the internet or a mobile service. For example, 'internet tilslutning' means internet connection.
Agreement and Support
When discussing ideas or proposals, 'tilslutning' signifies the extent to which people agree with or support something. A high 'tilslutning' means widespread acceptance, while a low 'tilslutning' suggests resistance or indifference. This can apply to political movements, new policies, or even simple suggestions in a group setting.
Joining a Group or Activity
It can also describe the act of becoming a member of a club, organization, or participating in an activity. Getting 'tilslutning' to a local sports team, for instance, means joining it and being accepted by its members.
Figurative Usage
Metaphorically, 'tilslutning' can refer to the emotional or intellectual connection people feel towards a cause or a person. It's about resonating with something and actively choosing to be a part of it or support it.

Vi håber på bred tilslutning til vores nye initiativ. (We hope for broad support for our new initiative.)

Sørg for korrekt tilslutning af strømkablet. (Ensure the power cable is connected correctly.)

Den manglende tilslutning fra befolkningen bekymrede politikerne. (The lack of public support worried the politicians.)

Du skal have en passende tilslutning for at kunne bruge denne app. (You need a proper connection to use this app.)

Børnene viste stor tilslutning til den nye leg. (The children showed great enthusiasm for the new game.)

Expressing Support
To express that an idea or proposal has received or is expected to receive support, you can use phrases like 'stor tilslutning' (great support), 'bred tilslutning' (broad support), or 'mangel på tilslutning' (lack of support). The preposition 'til' is crucial here: 'tilslutning til noget' (support for something).
Describing Physical Connections
When referring to physical connections, 'tilslutning' is often used with verbs like 'foretage' (to make/carry out), 'sikre' (to ensure), or 'kontrollere' (to check). For example, 'foretage en korrekt tilslutning' (to make a correct connection). It can also be the object of a request, such as 'brugerens tilslutning' (the user's connection).
Joining Groups or Activities
To indicate joining something, you might say 'få tilslutning til' (get support/connection to) or describe the general 'tilslutning' a club or event is experiencing. For example, 'foreningen har fået stor tilslutning i år' (the association has had great participation this year).
In Technical Manuals
In instruction manuals or technical documentation, 'tilslutning' will refer to ports, plugs, and the process of connecting components. You'll see phrases like 'forskellige typer af tilslutning' (different types of connection) or 'se vejledning for tilslutning' (see instructions for connection).
In News and Politics
In reporting on public opinion or the success of initiatives, 'tilslutning' is a common term. Articles might discuss 'den politiske tilslutning' (the political support) or 'tilslutningen til lovforslaget' (support for the bill).

Forslaget mødte stor tilslutning i befolkningen. (The proposal met with great support from the population.)

Vi skal sikre korrekt tilslutning af alle kabler, før vi tænder for maskinen. (We must ensure correct connection of all cables before turning on the machine.)

Den nye app har fået en overraskende stor tilslutning siden lanceringen. (The new app has received surprisingly large participation since its launch.)

For at opnå den bedste lydkvalitet, er en stabil tilslutning essentiel. (To achieve the best sound quality, a stable connection is essential.)

Kampagnen sigter mod at opnå bred tilslutning fra alle aldersgrupper. (The campaign aims to achieve broad support from all age groups.)

News and Current Affairs
You will frequently encounter 'tilslutning' in news reports discussing public opinion on political issues, government policies, or social movements. For example, a news anchor might say, "Der er stor tilslutning til forslaget om klimaændringer." (There is great support for the proposal on climate change.) This highlights the word's use in gauging collective agreement.
Technical Documentation and Manuals
In any context involving electronics, machinery, or software, 'tilslutning' will be used to describe connections. You'll see it in manuals for televisions, computers, appliances, and even in discussions about network infrastructure. For instance, "Følg instruktionerne for korrekt tilslutning af enheden." (Follow the instructions for correct connection of the device.)
Community and Club Meetings
When people gather to discuss joining a club, a project, or supporting a local initiative, 'tilslutning' is the word used to talk about participation and engagement. A club president might announce, "Vi er glade for den store tilslutning fra nye medlemmer i år." (We are happy about the great participation from new members this year.)
Business and Marketing
In business, 'tilslutning' can refer to customer adoption of a new product or service, or the support a company's strategy receives from its stakeholders. A marketing manager might comment, "Vi ser en positiv tilslutning til vores nye kampagne online." (We are seeing positive engagement with our new campaign online.)
Everyday Conversations
In informal chats, Danes might use 'tilslutning' to talk about whether friends agree with a plan or if a new restaurant is popular. "Får den nye café mon tilslutning nok til at overleve?" (Will the new cafe get enough support to survive?)

The evening news reported on the public's tilslutning to the new environmental law.

The user manual explained the proper tilslutning of the printer to the computer.

The local choir is experiencing excellent tilslutning from new singers.

The company hopes for strong tilslutning from its shareholders regarding the merger.

Will the new restaurant get enough tilslutning from the locals to stay open?

Confusing with 'Forbindelse' (Connection)
A common mistake is to confuse 'tilslutning' with 'forbindelse'. While both relate to connection, 'forbindelse' is a more general term for a link or relationship, often used for phone calls ('teleforbindelse') or roads ('landforbindelse'). 'Tilslutning', especially in the context of support, implies active agreement or joining. For example, you would say 'internetforbindelse' for an internet connection, but 'tilslutning til partiet' for joining a political party.
Incorrect Preposition Usage
Learners might misuse prepositions. The most common and correct preposition to use with 'tilslutning' when referring to support or agreement is 'til'. Saying 'tilslutning af et parti' (connection of a party) would be incorrect; it should be 'tilslutning til et parti' (support for a party).
Overusing for Physical Connections
While 'tilslutning' is used for physical connections, it's not always the most natural word. For a simple electrical plug, 'stik' or 'stikkontakt' might be more common. 'Tilslutning' often implies a more formal or technical connection process. For example, describing how to plug in a lamp, one might say "Sæt stikket i kontakten" (Put the plug in the socket) rather than "Foretag tilslutning af stikket" (Perform connection of the plug), unless it's a more complex setup.
Confusing with 'Deltagelse' (Participation)
'Deltagelse' means participation in an event or activity. While 'tilslutning' can imply participation (e.g., joining a club), it specifically emphasizes the aspect of agreement or support. You can have 'deltagelse' without necessarily having strong 'tilslutning' (e.g., attending a mandatory meeting). Conversely, one can show 'tilslutning' (support) without actively participating.
Using it for Emotional Bonding
While 'tilslutning' can imply an emotional connection, it's not a direct synonym for deep emotional bonding. Words like 'tilknytning' (attachment) or 'følelsesmæssig forbindelse' (emotional connection) are more appropriate for expressing deep bonds. 'Tilslutning' is more about aligning with an idea or joining a group.

Incorrect: The internet tilslutning was slow. Correct: The internet forbindelse was slow.

Incorrect: My tilslutning to the project was strong. Correct: My støtte to the project was strong.

Incorrect: He showed great tilslutning to the party. Correct: He showed great engagement/support for the party.

Incorrect: The children's tilslutning to the game was evident. Correct: The children's enthusiasm/enjoyment of the game was evident.

Incorrect: I need a tilslutning for this cable. Correct: I need a port/connector for this cable.

Støtte (Support)
'Støtte' is a very common synonym for support, especially in the context of backing an idea, person, or cause. While 'tilslutning' implies a more active joining or agreement, 'støtte' can be more passive backing.
Example:
'Han gav sin fulde støtte til reformen.' (He gave his full support to the reform.)
'Forslaget fik stor tilslutning fra alle parter.' (The proposal received great support from all parties.)
Accept (Acceptance)
'Accept' is straightforward and means acceptance. 'Tilslutning' implies a more enthusiastic or active acceptance, often involving joining or aligning with something.
Example:
'De accepterede hans forslag.' (They accepted his proposal.)
'Der var bred tilslutning til ideen.' (There was broad support/acceptance for the idea.)
Deltagelse (Participation)
'Deltagelse' refers to the act of taking part in something. 'Tilslutning' can lead to participation, but it's more about the agreement or support that motivates it.
Example:
'Vi håber på stor deltagelse i løbet.' (We hope for great participation in the race.)
'Klubben har fået god tilslutning i år.' (The club has had good participation/membership this year.)
Forbindelse (Connection)
As mentioned, 'forbindelse' is a more general term for a link or connection, often physical or communicative. 'Tilslutning' can refer to a specific type of connection (like an electrical outlet) or, more commonly, to support and agreement.
Example:
'Vi har en stabil internet forbindelse.' (We have a stable internet connection.)
'Politikerne søger bred tilslutning til lovforslaget.' (The politicians are seeking broad support for the bill.)
Samarbejde (Cooperation/Collaboration)
'Samarbejde' means working together. 'Tilslutning' is often a prerequisite for effective cooperation, as it signifies agreement and willingness to be involved.
Example:
'De indledte et frugtbart samarbejde.' (They initiated a fruitful cooperation.)
'Den nye strategi kræver tilslutning fra alle afdelinger.' (The new strategy requires support/buy-in from all departments.)

'Tilslutning' often implies a more active agreement than simple 'støtte'.

Think of 'tilslutning' as people 'plugging into' an idea, whereas 'støtte' is just lending a hand.

'Forbindelse' is for links and networks; 'tilslutning' is for support and joining.

'Deltagelse' is about being present; 'tilslutning' is about being in agreement.

'Samarbejde' requires agreement, which 'tilslutning' signifies.

How Formal Is It?

Dato curioso

The dual meaning of 'tilslutning' – physical connection and abstract support – reflects how language evolves. Initially focused on the tangible act of joining, it expanded to encompass the metaphorical 'joining' of minds or wills in agreement.

General

Fácil de confundir

tilslutning vs Forbindelse

Both words relate to the concept of 'connection'.

'Forbindelse' is a general term for a link, relationship, or communication channel (e.g., internetforbindelse, telefonforbindelse). 'Tilslutning' can refer to a specific physical or technical connection point (like an electrical outlet) or, more commonly, to the agreement, support, or active joining of an idea, group, or movement. Think of 'forbindelse' as a bridge and 'tilslutning' as choosing to cross that bridge and be on the other side.

Vi har en god internet <mark class='bg-emerald-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>forbindelse</mark>. (We have a good internet connection.)<br/>Forslaget fik bred <mark class='bg-emerald-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>tilslutning</mark> fra borgerne. (The proposal received broad support from the citizens.)

tilslutning vs Støtte

Both words mean 'support'.

'Støtte' is a more general term for providing help, backing, or assistance. It can be passive or active. 'Tilslutning', especially in the context of ideas or movements, implies a more active endorsement, agreement, or even joining. It's about aligning with something. You can give 'støtte' to a cause without necessarily having full 'tilslutning' to every aspect of it.

Han gav sin <mark class='bg-emerald-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>støtte</mark> til velgørenhedsarbejdet. (He gave his support to the charity work.)<br/>Den nye politik opnåede stor <mark class='bg-emerald-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>tilslutning</mark> blandt de unge. (The new policy achieved great support/buy-in among the young people.)

tilslutning vs Deltagelse

Both can imply being involved.

'Deltagelse' means participation – the act of taking part in an event, activity, or process. 'Tilslutning' is the agreement or support that often *motivates* participation. You can have 'deltagelse' without full 'tilslutning' (e.g., attending a mandatory meeting), and you can show 'tilslutning' (support) without actively participating in every detail.

Alle medarbejdere forventes at vise <mark class='bg-emerald-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>tilslutning</mark> til virksomhedens værdier. (All employees are expected to show alignment with the company's values.)<br/>Vi håber på stor <mark class='bg-emerald-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>deltagelse</mark> ved informationsmødet. (We hope for great participation at the information meeting.)

tilslutning vs Accept

Both can mean acceptance.

'Accept' is simply the act of agreeing to or receiving something. 'Tilslutning' implies a more active, often enthusiastic, acceptance and endorsement. It suggests people are 'plugging into' the idea, not just passively accepting it. 'Tilslutning' often carries a sense of joining or becoming part of something.

De <mark class='bg-emerald-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>accepterede</mark> ændringerne i planen. (They accepted the changes to the plan.)<br/>Den nye idé fik bred <mark class='bg-emerald-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>tilslutning</mark> fra hele teamet. (The new idea received broad buy-in from the whole team.)

tilslutning vs Integration

Both can relate to connecting things.

'Integration' refers to the process of combining or bringing different parts together to form a unified whole, often used in technical (system integration) or social contexts (social integration). 'Tilslutning' can be a part of integration, especially when it refers to connecting components (technical tilslutning) or gaining social acceptance (social tilslutning) which facilitates integration. However, 'tilslutning' is not always about forming a complete whole; it can be about simply connecting or supporting.

Den nye software kræver nem <mark class='bg-emerald-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>integration</mark> med eksisterende systemer. (The new software requires easy integration with existing systems.)<br/>At opnå <mark class='bg-emerald-200 dark:bg-emerald-800 px-0.5 rounded'>tilslutning</mark> er første skridt mod succesfuld integration i samfundet. (Gaining acceptance is the first step towards successful integration into society.)

Errores comunes
  • Using 'tilslutning' for general internet connection. Using 'forbindelse' for general internet connection.

    'Forbindelse' is the more common and general term for an internet connection ('internetforbindelse'). While 'tilslutning' can refer to the act of connecting or the port, 'forbindelse' describes the established link itself. Using 'tilslutning' here might sound overly technical or specific.

  • Confusing 'tilslutning' (support) with 'tilknytning' (attachment). Using 'tilslutning' for support/agreement and 'tilknytning' for emotional attachment.

    'Tilslutning' refers to agreement, support, or joining. 'Tilknytning' means attachment, often emotional or a sense of belonging. They are distinct concepts; one is about alignment, the other about bonding.

  • Using 'tilslutning' when 'deltagelse' (participation) is more appropriate. Using 'tilslutning' for agreement/support and 'deltagelse' for the act of taking part.

    'Tilslutning' is the reason or agreement behind an action, while 'deltagelse' is the action itself. You gain 'tilslutning' to motivate 'deltagelse'.

  • Incorrect preposition with 'tilslutning'. Using 'tilslutning til' for support and 'tilslutning af' for physical connection.

    The preposition is crucial. 'Tilslutning til' is standard for showing support or agreement with something. 'Tilslutning af' is typically used when referring to the physical act of connecting a device or component.

  • Using 'tilslutning' for a simple plug. Using 'stik' or 'stikkontakt' for a simple plug and socket.

    While 'tilslutning' can broadly refer to connection, for simple everyday objects like plugs and sockets, more specific terms like 'stik' (plug) and 'stikkontakt' (socket) are more natural and common.

Consejos

Understand the Context

The meaning of 'tilslutning' hinges entirely on its context. If the surrounding words relate to technology, electricity, or networks, it means a physical or digital connection. If the topic is politics, social issues, or ideas, it refers to agreement, support, or participation.

Watch the Prepositions

The preposition following 'tilslutning' can be a strong indicator. 'Tilslutning til' commonly means support for something (e.g., 'tilslutning til forslaget'). 'Tilslutning af' often refers to the connection of a physical item (e.g., 'tilslutning af kablet').

Active Engagement

Compared to simple 'støtte' (support), 'tilslutning' often implies a more active form of agreement or involvement. It suggests people are actively 'plugging into' an idea or joining a group, rather than just passively endorsing it.

Consider Alternatives

Depending on the nuance, words like 'støtte' (support), 'deltagelse' (participation), 'engagement', or 'forbindelse' (connection) might be relevant. Choose 'tilslutning' when you want to emphasize active agreement, joining, or a specific type of connection.

Recognize Compound Forms

Be aware of common compound words like 'internet tilslutning' or 'netværkstilslutning'. These are specific types of connections and are frequently encountered in technical and everyday contexts.

Practice Pronunciation

Focus on the stress on the first syllable ('TIL-slut-ning') and ensure the 'g' at the end is soft. Practicing aloud will help you remember and use the word correctly.

Think in Scenarios

Visualize scenarios: a politician seeking 'tilslutning' from voters, a technician ensuring correct 'tilslutning' of equipment, or children showing 'tilslutning' to a new game. This helps solidify the different meanings.

Use Mnemonics

Create your own memory aids. For example, imagine people 'plugging into' an idea like an electrical socket ('tilslutning') to show their agreement.

Danish Context

No, 'tilslutning' has two main meanings. It can refer to a physical or technical connection, like plugging in a device or connecting to a network. However, it also very commonly refers to agreement, support, or endorsement for an idea, proposal, or movement. The context will always tell you which meaning is intended.

'Støtte' is a general term for support, which can be passive or active. 'Tilslutning', especially when referring to ideas or movements, implies a more active form of support, often involving agreement, endorsement, or even joining. Think of 'tilslutning' as people 'plugging into' an idea, showing a deeper level of engagement than just passive 'støtte'.

Yes, absolutely. When a club or organization gets 'stor tilslutning', it means they have attracted many new members or participants, indicating strong support and interest from the community. It signifies people actively choosing to join.

Pay close attention to the surrounding words and the overall topic. If the sentence talks about cables, electricity, networks, or devices, it's likely a physical or technical connection. If it discusses policies, ideas, campaigns, or public opinion, it's almost certainly about agreement and support. The preposition used is also a clue: 'tilslutning til' often means support, while 'tilslutning af' can mean connection of something.

'Tilslutning' can be used in both formal and informal contexts. In formal settings, it might be used in political discourse or technical documentation. In informal settings, it can describe enthusiasm for a new game or the popularity of a café. The surrounding language and context will indicate the level of formality.

The verb form is 'tilslutte', which means to connect, to join, or to attach. For example, 'Jeg vil gerne tilslutte mig jeres hold.' (I would like to join your team.) or 'Kan du tilslutte printeren?' (Can you connect the printer?).

'Bred tilslutning' translates to 'broad support' or 'widespread agreement'. It indicates that an idea, proposal, or initiative has been accepted or endorsed by a large number of people or a wide range of groups.

Yes, 'tilslutning' is commonly used for online and network connections. You might hear or read about 'internet tilslutning' (internet connection), 'mobil tilslutning' (mobile connection), or 'netværkstilslutning' (network connection). It refers to the act of connecting to these services.

Use a mnemonic device. Imagine people 'plugging into' an idea (like an electrical connection) to show their support. The more people who 'plug in', the more 'tilslutning' (support) the idea receives. This links the physical connection idea with the abstract support meaning.

Generally, 'tilslutning' itself is neutral and positive, indicating agreement or connection. However, a *lack* of 'tilslutning' ('mangel på tilslutning') can be negative, implying resistance, disinterest, or failure to connect. The word itself simply describes the state of being connected or supported.
