When someone is ansvarlig, it means they are responsible for something. Imagine you have a task at work or school. If you are ansvarlig for that task, it means it's your job to make sure it gets done. It also means you are accountable if something goes wrong. Being ansvarlig is about having duties and making sure you fulfill them.
When using the adjective "ansvarlig" (responsible), it's important to know how to connect it to what someone is responsible for. In Danish, you typically use the preposition "for" (for) after "ansvarlig" to indicate this.
For example, if you want to say "She is responsible for the project," you would say "Hun er ansvarlig for projektet."
Similarly, when referring to being responsible towards someone, you might use "over for" (towards/in relation to). So, "You are responsible towards your team" would be "Du er ansvarlig over for dit hold."
Remember that like many Danish adjectives, "ansvarlig" can take different forms depending on the noun it describes. However, in its core meaning of being accountable, the structure with "for" remains consistent.
Let's look at the Danish word ansvarlig. This word is an adjective and means 'responsible for something'. It's a very common word, especially in formal settings or when talking about duties and obligations. You'll hear it a lot in everyday conversation, too.

§ What 'ansvarlig' means
- Danish Word
- ansvarlig
- Part of Speech
- adjective
- CEFR Level
- B2
- Definition
- responsible for something
When you say someone is ansvarlig in Danish, you are saying they are responsible. This can mean they have a duty to take care of something or someone, or that they are the cause of something good or bad. It's a common and practical word to know.
§ Examples of 'ansvarlig' in use
Han er ansvarlig for projektet.
This means: He is responsible for the project. Here, ansvarlig refers to having a duty or a role.
Vi skal finde den ansvarlige for fejlen.
This translates to: We need to find the one responsible for the mistake. In this case, ansvarlige refers to the person who caused the error.
Hun opfører sig meget ansvarligt.
Meaning: She behaves very responsibly. Here, it describes a quality of her behavior.
§ Related words and when to use them
Let's look at words similar to ansvarlig and when you might use them. Danish has a few ways to express responsibility, and choosing the right one depends on the nuance you want to convey.
- Ansvar (noun): This is the noun form, meaning 'responsibility'. You would use this when talking about the responsibility itself, rather than someone being responsible. For example: Det er dit ansvar. (It is your responsibility.)
- Pålidelig (adjective): This means 'reliable' or 'trustworthy'. While a responsible person is often reliable, pålidelig emphasizes dependability in general, not necessarily being accountable for a specific task or outcome. A person who is ansvarlig carries the weight of a task, whereas a pålidelig person is someone you can count on. For instance: Han er en meget pålidelig medarbejder. (He is a very reliable employee.)
- Kompetent (adjective): Meaning 'competent'. Someone who is competent is skilled and capable of doing a task. While an ansvarlig person might also be competent, ansvarlig focuses more on the duty and accountability, while kompetent focuses on the ability. You can be competent without being directly responsible for something. Example: Hun er en kompetent leder. (She is a competent leader.)
So, when should you use ansvarlig over these others?
- Use ansvarlig when you want to highlight that someone has a duty, is accountable for an outcome, or is the cause of a situation. It directly ties a person or entity to a specific obligation or result.
- Use ansvar when you are talking about the abstract concept of responsibility itself.
- Use pålidelig when you want to describe someone who is generally dependable and can be trusted to do things consistently well.
- Use kompetent when you want to emphasize someone's skills and abilities to perform a task effectively.
How Formal Is It?
"Ministeren er ansvarlig for landets økonomi. (The minister is responsible for the country's economy.)"
"Han er ansvarlig for projektet. (He is responsible for the project.)"
"Jeg er ansvarlig for aftensmaden i aften. (I'm responsible for dinner tonight.)"

Como usar
When using 'ansvarlig', you will often see it paired with 'for' (for). For example, 'han er ansvarlig for projektet' (he is responsible for the project). It can also be used with 'over for' (towards/to) when talking about responsibility to someone. For instance, 'vi er ansvarlige over for vores kunder' (we are responsible towards our customers).
A common mistake is to confuse 'ansvarlig' with 'at svare' (to answer). While they look similar, 'ansvarlig' means responsible, and 'at svare' means to answer. Another mistake is to forget the preposition 'for' or 'over for' when specifying what or to whom someone is responsible. Always remember to include the preposition.

Sample answer
København – Efter måneders intens efterforskning er der nu sat navn på de personer, der er fundet ansvarlig for den nylige offentlige skandale. En uafhængig kommission har konkluderet, at den tidligere administrerende direktør var den primært ansvarlige for de misbrugte midler, idet han havde det ultimative overordnede ansvar. Desuden blev to ledende medarbejdere også fundet medansvarlige for ikke at have grebet ind trods kendskab til uregelmæssighederne. En talsmand for kommissionen udtalte, at selvom flere forsøgte at fraskrive sig ansvaret, var det tydeligt, hvem der i sidste ende var ansvarlig for de katastrofale beslutninger. Offentligheden forventer nu, at de ansvarlige vil stå til regnskab for deres handlinger.
Hvilken påstand beskriver bedst den generelle holdning til ansvar i komplekse organisationer ifølge teksten?
Read this passage:
I en kompleks organisation er det ofte svært at udpege én enkelt person som fuldt ud ansvarlig for alle fejl. Ofte ligger ansvaret fordelt på flere niveauer, hvor hver afdeling eller medarbejder har et specifikt ansvar for deres egne opgaver. Når der opstår en krise, er det dog afgørende hurtigt at identificere, hvem der er ansvarlig for at koordinere indsatsen og træffe de nødvendige beslutninger for at minimere skaden. En effektiv krisehåndtering kræver en klar ansvarsfordeling for at undgå forvirring og ineffektivitet.

Hvilket udsagn er IKKE en af de pointer, teksten rejser angående ansvaret for klimaforandringer?
Read this passage:
Debatten om klimaforandringer har intensiveret fokus på, hvem der er ansvarlig for at tackle denne globale udfordring. Nogle argumenterer for, at industrialiserede lande er primært ansvarlige på grund af deres historiske udledning af drivhusgasser. Andre mener, at alle lande, uanset udviklingsniveau, er kollektivt ansvarlige og skal bidrage til løsningen. Der er også en voksende diskussion om, i hvor høj grad individuelle forbrugere er ansvarlige for deres eget CO2-aftryk og de valg, de træffer i hverdagen.

Ifølge teksten, hvad er den primære rolle for en ansvarlig forælder?
Read this passage:
Som forælder er man ansvarlig for sine børns opdragelse, trivsel og sikkerhed. Dette ansvar strækker sig over mange år og involverer et utal af beslutninger, fra de daglige rutiner til de mere langsigtede valg vedrørende skolegang og fremtid. Selvom staten og skolen også har et medansvar, kan det grundlæggende ansvar for et barns udvikling ikke delegeres fuldt ud. Det er et konstant og ofte krævende ansvar, der former et individs liv i høj grad. At være en ansvarlig forælder betyder at prioritere barnets behov først.
