foreslå 30秒で
- To suggest an idea, plan, or action.
- Used in meetings, social plans, and problem-solving.
- Commonly followed by 'at' and a clause.
- Past tense: foreslo; past participle: foreslått.
- Core Meaning
- To offer an idea, plan, or suggestion for consideration. It's about putting something forward for others to think about or decide upon.
- Common Usage
- When you want to propose something in a meeting, suggest a course of action to a friend, or offer an idea for a project. It implies a collaborative or advisory role, where the speaker is not necessarily making a demand but rather presenting an option.
- Nuance
- While 'foreslå' means to suggest, the strength of the suggestion can vary depending on the context and tone. It can range from a casual offering of an idea to a more formal proposal in a business or academic setting. It's generally less forceful than 'anbefale' (recommend) or 'foreskrive' (prescribe).
- Examples in Context
- In a work meeting, someone might say: "Jeg vil gjerne foreslå at vi utsetter møtet til neste uke." (I would like to suggest that we postpone the meeting until next week.) With friends planning a trip: "Hva om vi foreslår en tur til fjellene i sommer?" (What if we suggest a trip to the mountains this summer?)
I want to foreslå a new strategy for the marketing campaign.

- Basic Structure
- Subject + foreslå + (object/idea) + (prepositional phrase/clause). Often, 'at' is used to introduce what is being suggested.
- With 'at' Clause
- This is a very common construction for suggesting an action or a state of affairs. The verb in the subordinate clause is typically in the infinitive or present tense.
- Suggesting a Thing/Idea Directly
- You can also suggest a noun or a noun phrase directly, without an 'at' clause.
- Past Tense Usage
- The past tense 'foreslo' is used to talk about suggestions made in the past.
- Past Participle Usage
- The past participle 'foreslått' is used in perfect tenses (e.g., 'har foreslått') and in passive constructions.
Jeg vil foreslå at vi tar en pause.
Han foreslo en ny plan for prosjektet.
Har du foreslått noe annet?
Vi bør foreslå en felles løsning.
Lederen forslår at vi øker budsjettet.
Forslaget ble foreslått av en av medlemmene.
- Meetings and Discussions
- This is a very common verb in professional and academic settings. You'll hear it when people are brainstorming, making decisions, or planning projects. For example, in a business meeting: "Jeg vil gjerne foreslå en ny tilnærming til kundeservice." (I would like to suggest a new approach to customer service.)
- Social Gatherings and Planning
- Friends and family use 'foreslå' when deciding what to do, where to go, or what to eat. "Hva foreslår du at vi gjør i helgen?" (What do you suggest we do this weekend?) or "Jeg foreslår pizza til middag." (I suggest pizza for dinner.)
- Political and Public Discourse
- News reports, political debates, and public announcements often feature this verb when discussing policies, proposals, or solutions. "Regjeringen foreslo en ny lov om miljøvern." (The government proposed a new law on environmental protection.)
- Educational Settings
- Teachers might suggest activities or topics to students, and students might suggest ideas for projects. "Læreren foreslo at vi skulle skrive en stil om høsten." (The teacher suggested that we write an essay about autumn.)
- Problem-Solving Scenarios
- When facing a challenge, people will often 'foreslå' solutions. "Vi har et problem, så vi må foreslå en løsning." (We have a problem, so we must propose a solution.)
- Everyday Conversations
- Even in casual chats, the verb can appear when offering advice or ideas. "Jeg foreslår at du prøver den nye kafeen." (I suggest you try that new cafe.)
In a parliamentary debate, a politician might say, "Jeg foreslo en lovendring som ville hjelpe småbedrifter." (I proposed a legislative change that would help small businesses.)
During a family dinner, someone might ask, "Hva skal vi foreslå til dessert?" (What shall we suggest for dessert?)
In a work meeting, the team leader might say, "Jeg foreslår at vi jobber overtid denne uken for å møte fristen." (I suggest we work overtime this week to meet the deadline.)
A student might tell their friend, "Læreren foreslo at vi skulle lage en presentasjon i stedet for en skriftlig oppgave." (The teacher suggested we make a presentation instead of a written assignment.)
When discussing a problem, someone might say, "Vi må foreslå en løsning raskt." (We must propose a solution quickly.)
- Confusing with 'anbefale' (recommend)
- 'Foreslå' is about offering an idea for consideration, while 'anbefale' is a stronger endorsement, suggesting something is good or advisable. You might 'foreslå' a restaurant, but 'anbefale' it if you've had a great experience. Mistake: "Jeg vil anbefale at vi tar en pause." (Incorrect if you just mean to suggest it, not necessarily endorse it.) Correct: "Jeg vil foreslå at vi tar en pause." or "Jeg anbefaler denne restauranten." (I recommend this restaurant.)
- Incorrect Verb Forms
- While 'foreslå' is a regular verb, learners might mistakenly conjugate it as irregular or vice versa. The correct forms are: present: foreslår, past: foreslo, past participle: foreslått. Mistake: "Jeg foreslått en idé." (Incorrect.) Correct: "Jeg har foreslått en idé." or "Jeg foreslo en idé." Mistake: "Han foreslår en plan." (Correct in present tense, but might be confused if past tense is needed.)
- Misunderstanding 'at' Clause Usage
- When suggesting an action, it's common to use 'at' followed by a clause. Omitting 'at' when it's expected can sound unnatural. Mistake: "Jeg vil foreslå vi tar en pause." (Less common, though understandable.) Correct: "Jeg vil foreslå at vi tar en pause." (More natural.)
- Using 'foreslå' for Demands
- 'Foreslå' implies a suggestion, not a command. Using it when you intend to make a strong request or demand can be misleading. Mistake: (In a situation where a decision has already been made and you are ordering someone) "Jeg foreslår at du gjør dette nå." (This sounds weak and may not convey the urgency or authority needed.) Better to use a direct command or a stronger verb if authority is implied.
- Pronunciation Errors
- While not strictly a vocabulary error, mispronouncing the word can hinder comprehension. The stress is on the first syllable: FOR-slå. The 'o' is short, and the 'å' sound is distinct. Incorrect pronunciation might lead listeners to misunderstand the word.
Incorrect: "Han anbefalte at vi gikk hjem." (He recommended that we go home.) - unless he truly believes going home is the best course of action.
Correct: "Han foreslo at vi gikk hjem." (He suggested that we go home.)
Incorrect: "Jeg har foreslå en idé."
Correct: "Jeg har foreslått en idé."
Less natural: "Vi vil foreslå vi spiser ute."
More natural: "Vi vil foreslå at vi spiser ute."
If you need to give a firm instruction, avoid 'foreslå'. For example, if a boss is telling an employee to complete a task immediately, they wouldn't say: "Jeg foreslår at du fullfører rapporten nå." Instead, they'd say: "Vennligst fullfør rapporten nå." (Please complete the report now.)
- Foreslå vs. Anbefale
- Foreslå (to suggest): Offers an idea for consideration. It's open to discussion and doesn't necessarily imply strong approval.
Anbefale (to recommend): Suggests something is good, advisable, or worthy of choosing. It carries more weight and implies a positive endorsement.
Example: Du kan foreslå en film, men du anbefaler den bare hvis du virkelig liker den. (You can suggest a movie, but you only recommend it if you really like it.) - Foreslå vs. Gi råd
- Foreslå: More about proposing an idea or a plan.
Gi råd (to give advice): Implies offering guidance or opinion based on knowledge or experience, often to help someone make a decision or solve a problem.
Example: Legen foreslo at pasienten hvilte, men han ga også råd om kosthold. (The doctor suggested the patient rest, but he also gave advice about diet.) - Foreslå vs. Foreskrive
- Foreslå: A suggestion, open to debate.
Foreskrive (to prescribe): To lay down authoritatively, to dictate, or to order. This is much stronger and implies a requirement. Doctors 'foreskriver' medicine.
Example: Sjefen kan foreslå en ny policy, men myndighetene kan foreskrive regler. (The boss can suggest a new policy, but the authorities can prescribe rules.) - Foreslå vs. Foreslå seg
- Foreslå: To suggest (as discussed).
Foreslå seg (to propose to oneself/to suggest oneself): This reflexive form is less common and usually means to present oneself or to offer oneself for a role.
Example: Han foreslo en løsning. (He suggested a solution.) Han foreslo seg som lederkandidat. (He nominated himself as a candidate for leader.) - Alternatives
- Depending on the nuance, you might use:
Komme med et forslag: To come up with a suggestion/proposal. (e.g., "Jeg vil komme med et forslag.")
Gi et hint: To give a hint.
Komme med en idé: To come up with an idea.
Ytre en mening: To express an opinion.
You can foreslå a destination for vacation, but you anbefaler it if you've been there and loved it.
A teacher might foreslå an essay topic, but they give advice on how to write it.
A doctor prescribes medication, but a friend might suggest a home remedy.
