When you own something, we use the verb 'eje' in Danish. It's pronounced like 'eye-uh'.
You can 'eje' a car, a house, or even a book. It means you are the rightful owner of that thing.
When we talk about the verb "eje" (to own) in Danish, it's pretty straightforward for the most part. However, it's worth noting some nuances when it comes to expressing possession in different contexts, especially when comparing it to English.
While "eje" directly translates to "to own" and is used similarly, Danes often use constructions with "have" (to have) or even just the genitive ('s) to indicate possession in everyday speech, particularly for more common items or relationships.
For example, instead of saying "Jeg ejer et hus" (I own a house), you might more frequently hear "Jeg har et hus" (I have a house). Both are correct, but the latter is often more natural.
So, while understanding and using "eje" is crucial, also be aware of these alternative ways of expressing ownership to sound more natural in various situations.

- eget: own (adjective, neuter singular)
§ What "eje" Means
The Danish word "eje" (pronounced approximately like 'eye-uh' with a soft 'uh' sound at the end) is a verb. At its core, it means 'to own' or 'to possess' something. If you "eje" something, it belongs to you. It's a straightforward concept, much like its English equivalent.
- DEFINITION
- To have something as property; to possess.
When learning Danish, understanding words like "eje" early on is practical because it describes a very common interaction with the world: ownership. You'll use it to talk about who has what, whether it's a car, a house, a book, or even a pet. It's a fundamental verb for expressing possession.
§ When People Use "eje"
People use "eje" in everyday conversations to talk about ownership of various things. Here are some common scenarios:
- Material Possessions: This is the most obvious use. If you own a car, a house, or a bicycle, you "eje" it.
- Animals: If you have a pet, you "eje" that animal.
- Companies or Businesses: If someone owns a business, they "eje" the company.
- Intellectual Property: While less common at the A1 level, "eje" can also refer to owning rights to something, like a patent or a copyright.
It's generally used when there's a clear legal or personal claim to an item. For example, you wouldn't typically say you "eje" a cup of coffee you just bought and are about to drink, because that's more about temporary possession. "Eje" implies a more lasting relationship with the item. However, if you bought a fancy coffee machine, you would definitely "eje" that.
Jeg ejer en bil. (I own a car.)
De ejer et hus. (They own a house.)
Hun ejer en hund. (She owns a dog.)
Notice how the verb "eje" changes form based on the subject (jeg, de, hun). We will cover verb conjugations more in a later section, but for now, just observe how it appears in these sentences. The 'r' at the end of "ejer" indicates the present tense.
In Danish, there are other ways to express possession, such as using possessive pronouns (min, din, hans, etc., meaning 'my,' 'your,' 'his'). However, "eje" specifically focuses on the act of owning. Think of it as the verb version of 'owner.' If you are the owner, you "eje" something. This distinction is important for clarity. For instance, 'Min bil' means 'My car,' indicating possession, but 'Jeg ejer en bil' explicitly states 'I own a car,' emphasizing the act of ownership.
The word "eje" is quite common and useful. You'll encounter it in conversations about buying and selling things, describing someone's assets, or even discussing who is responsible for something because they own it. Mastering this verb early will significantly boost your ability to discuss practical matters in Danish.
Let's look at some common mistakes English speakers make when using the Danish verb 'eje'. It usually comes down to directly translating English ownership concepts, which doesn't always work in Danish.
§ Mistake 1: Confusing 'eje' with 'have' (to have)
In English, we often use 'to have' to talk about possession. For example, 'I have a car'. While 'have' (at have) exists in Danish, 'eje' specifically means 'to own'. You wouldn't typically use 'eje' for temporary possession or for things you simply possess without legal ownership.
- Wrong
- Jeg ejer en blyant. (I own a pencil.)
While grammatically correct, this sounds a bit too formal for a simple pencil. You wouldn't usually emphasize ownership of something small and everyday like that.
- Right
- Jeg har en blyant. (I have a pencil.)
Han ejer et stort hus. (He owns a big house.)
Here, 'eje' is correct because a house is a significant asset that someone legally owns.
§ Mistake 2: Using 'eje' with abstract concepts
'Eje' is almost always used for tangible things, or things that can be legally owned, like a company. You wouldn't use it for abstract concepts, feelings, or relationships.
- Wrong
- Jeg ejer glæde. (I own joy.)
This doesn't make sense in Danish. You can't 'own' joy.
- Right
- Jeg føler glæde. (I feel joy.)
This is the correct way to express feeling an emotion.
§ Mistake 3: Incorrect Conjugation
Like all Danish verbs, 'eje' conjugates. Make sure you're using the correct form. Here's a quick reminder:
- Infinitive: eje (to own)
- Present tense: ejer (owns/am owning/are owning)
- Past tense: ejede (owned)
- Past participle: ejet (owned)
De ejer en virksomhed sammen. (They own a company together.)
Jeg ejede engang en rød bil. (I once owned a red car.)
By keeping these points in mind, you'll use 'eje' more naturally and avoid common pitfalls. Remember, context is key!

The word 'eje' also appears in common phrases like 'at eje sit eget liv' (to own one's own life), meaning to be in control of one's destiny.
अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले सवाल
10 सवालYou pronounce 'eje' like 'eye-yeh'. The 'e' at the beginning is like the 'e' in 'bet', and the 'je' at the end is like the 'yeh' in 'yes'.
That's a good question! While both can mean 'to have', 'eje' specifically means 'to own' something, like property. 'Have' is a more general verb for 'to have' in a broader sense, like 'I have a car' (jeg har en bil) or 'I have a good day' (jeg har en god dag).
No, you can't use 'eje' for people. 'Eje' is strictly for possessing objects or property. You would never say 'jeg ejer en kone' (I own a wife). That would be very strange and incorrect.
You would commonly 'eje' a house (et hus), a car (en bil), a book (en bog), or even a business (en virksomhed). Anything that you possess as property.
Yes, 'eje' is a regular -e verb. This means its past tense and past participle follow a predictable pattern. It's relatively easy to conjugate.
The past tense of 'eje' is 'ejede'. So, 'I owned' would be 'jeg ejede'.
You can use it like this: 'Jeg ejer et hus.' (I own a house.) Or 'De ejer en stor virksomhed.' (They own a big company.)
Not really. Its core meaning is 'to own' or 'to possess' as property. You won't find it used in many other contexts.
The noun form of 'eje' is 'ejendom', which means 'property' or 'estate'. For example, 'en stor ejendom' (a large property).
Not many common idioms with 'eje'. It's a pretty straightforward verb. You'll mostly hear it used directly to mean 'to own'.

Verbet 'eje' kan bruges refleksivt til at udtrykke, at man har kontrol over sine følelser, f.eks. 'at eje sig selv'.
Udtrykket 'at eje sig selv' betyder netop at have fuld kontrol over sine handlinger, følelser og tanker. Dette er en etableret refleksiv brug af 'eje' på dansk.
I udtrykket 'at eje bolden' i sport betyder 'eje' at være i besiddelse af bolden og have kontrol over spillet.
I sportskontekst, især i fodbold, bruges 'at eje bolden' om at et hold har bolden mest, kontrollerer spillet og dikterer tempoet. Det handler om besiddelse og dominans, ikke nødvendigvis at have den til evig tid.
