nutzen
to use or utilize
- Past (Präteritum)
- nutzte
- Past participle
- genutzt (haben)
Regular weak verb taking haben, though occasionally used in strong forms (genossen) when synonymous with 'to enjoy'. It denotes the application of resources, tools, or paths to achieve a specific goal. It is used broadly across technical, abstract, and literal contexts. It is distinct from 'nützen', which primarily expresses the state of being useful or advantageous to someone or something, although the two verbs are often used interchangeably in modern German.
