When you have an idea that might explain something, but you haven't proven it yet, that's a hypotese.
It's like a guess you make based on what you already know, and then you try to find out if it's true.
Maybe you think a new way of learning Danish will work better, so that's your hypotese.
You then need to test it to see if your idea is correct.
When learning Danish at a C1 level, you'll encounter more abstract and academic vocabulary. The word hypotese is a great example. It's a direct cognate to the English "hypothesis," and it means the same thing: a proposed explanation for something based on limited evidence. You'll often see it used in scientific, research, or philosophical contexts. Understanding this word helps you engage with more complex Danish texts and discussions.
How Formal Is It?
"Videnskabsfolk opstiller en hypotese, som de derefter forsøger at bevise eller modbevise gennem eksperimenter."
"Min antagelse er, at det vil regne i morgen, men jeg er ikke sikker."
"Jeg har et gæt om, hvorfor han er sur, men det er bare et gæt."
"Min tankestreg er, at slikket forsvandt, fordi hunden spiste det."
"Det er bare et skud i tågen, men jeg tror, han lyver."
発音ガイド
- Pronouncing the 'h' as a strong, breathy sound, similar to the 'h' in 'house' in English. In Danish, the 'h' at the beginning of a word is often much softer, almost silent, or can be pronounced as a very gentle puff of air.
- Misplacing the stress. The stress in 'hypotese' falls on the last syllable, '-te-se'. English speakers might instinctively stress the first syllable 'hy-'.

使い方
Hypotese is a common word in academic and scientific contexts. It's used when presenting a theory that still needs to be tested or proven. You might encounter it in discussions about research, experiments, or even in more informal settings when someone is speculating about why something happened. Remember that a hypotese is not a fact, but a suggestion that requires further investigation. Example: 'Forskere har en ny hypotese om årsagen til sygdommen.' (Researchers have a new hypothesis about the cause of the disease.)
A common mistake is to confuse 'hypotese' with 'teori' (theory). While a hypotese is a proposed explanation, a teori is a well-substantiated explanation acquired through the scientific method and repeatedly tested and confirmed through observation and experimentation. Another mistake is using it too casually; 'hypotese' implies a certain level of structured thought or observation, even if preliminary. Incorrect: 'Jeg har en hypotese om, at jeg er træt, fordi jeg har sovet dårligt.' (I have a hypothesis that I'm tired because I slept poorly.) Correct: 'Jeg gætter på, at jeg er træt, fordi jeg har sovet dårligt.' (I guess I'm tired because I slept poorly.) or 'Min hypotese er, at den nye medicin vil reducere symptomerne.' (My hypothesis is that the new medicine will reduce the symptoms.)
よくある質問
10 問You pronounce 'hypotese' as hee-po-TAY-seh. The stress is on the third syllable. Try saying it slowly: hee-po-TAY-seh.
While it's a valid Danish word, 'hypotese' is more common in academic or scientific contexts, much like its English equivalent 'hypothesis'. You wouldn't use it in everyday casual conversation very often.
A hypotese (hypothesis) is an educated guess or a proposed explanation that needs to be tested. A teori (theory) is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment. So, a hypothesis is a starting point, and a theory is a more established conclusion.
Sure. Here's one: 'Forskerne testede en ny hypotese om klimaændringer.' (The researchers tested a new hypothesis about climate change.)
The most common way to say 'to hypothesize' in Danish is to use a phrase like 'at opstille en hypotese' (to put forward a hypothesis) or 'at formulere en hypotese' (to formulate a hypothesis). There isn't a direct verb form like 'to hypothesize'.
In some contexts, you might hear 'antagelse' (assumption) or 'formodning' (presumption), but these aren't always direct synonyms. 'Hypotese' specifically implies a scientific or academic guess that needs proof. 'Antagelse' can be a more general belief without the same rigor.
The plural form of 'hypotese' is hypoteser. For example, 'Flere hypoteser blev fremsat.' (Several hypotheses were put forward.)
'Hypotese' is a common gender noun in Danish, which means it takes the indefinite article 'en'. So it's en hypotese.
CEFR C1 means 'hypotese' is considered an advanced-level word. Learners at this level can understand a wide range of demanding, longer texts, and recognize implicit meaning. They can express themselves fluently and spontaneously without much obvious searching for expressions. So, it's a word for more sophisticated communication.
Generally, no. 'Hypotese' carries a more formal or academic weight. If you're just making a casual guess, you'd likely use words like 'gæt' (guess) or 'formodning' (presumption) instead. For example, 'Jeg har et gæt.' (I have a guess.)
