Overview
Ordet 'uge' er et helt centralt substantiv i det danske sprog. Det betegner en periode på præcis syv dage. Da vores kalendersystem er bygget op omkring uger, er dette et af de første ord, man lærer, når man skal tale om tid, aftaler og planer.
Usage Patterns
'Uge' er et fælleskøn-ord (en uge). Når man tæller uger, bruger man talord foran, f.eks. 'to uger'. Man bruger ofte præpositionen 'i' for at angive varighed, f.eks. 'Jeg er i Danmark i en uge'. For at angive tidspunktet bruger man 'i uge X', f.eks. 'i uge 42'.
Common Contexts
I dagligdagen bruges ordet konstant i arbejdssammenhænge og sociale sammenhænge. Man taler om 'arbejdsuge', 'ferieuge' eller 'ugeplan'. Mange danskere refererer også til ugenumre, som er meget udbredt i dansk erhvervsliv.
