B1 Collocation 正式

die Absicht haben

have the intention

意思

To plan or aim to do something.

🌍

文化背景

The phrase is linked to the concept of 'Vorsatz' in law. Doing something 'mit Absicht' (with intent) is a much more serious offense than 'Fahrlässigkeit' (negligence). In Austria, the register might be slightly more formal or 'höflich' (polite). You might hear 'Ich hätte {die|f} Absicht...' (subjunctive) more often to sound softer. Swiss German speakers use the standard German form in writing, but in dialect, they might use 'I ha vor' (Ich habe vor) more frequently even in semi-formal settings. Stating an 'Absicht' in a meeting is seen as a binding commitment. If you say it, people will take notes and expect a follow-up.

💡

Use it in Emails

When writing a formal email, replace 'Ich will' with 'Ich habe {die|f} Absicht' to instantly sound more professional.

⚠️

Don't forget the 'zu'

Always remember that the verb at the end of the sentence needs 'zu'. 'Ich habe {die|f} Absicht zu *gehen*.'

The Negative Power

Use 'Ich habe keineswegs {die|f} Absicht...' to strongly deny an accusation or rumor in a professional way.

💬

Directness

Be careful: stating an 'Absicht' is taken seriously. Don't say it if you are just 'considering' something.
