Questions & Answers about Mitt kontor är organiserat nu.

Why is it mitt and not min kontor?

In Swedish, possessive pronouns agree with the grammatical gender of the noun. Kontor is an ett-word (neuter gender), so you use the neuter form mitt. If it were an en-word, you’d use min (e.g. min bil).

What kind of tense or voice is är organiserat? Is that a passive?

Yes. This is the statal/resultative passive in Swedish, built with vara (here är) + the past participle (here organiserat). It describes the state/result: the office is now organized.

How is that different from the -s passive (e.g. organiseras)?

• -s passive (Kontoret organiseras nu) focuses on the process (“the office is being organized”).
• Vara+past participle (Kontoret är organiserat nu) focuses on the resulting state (“the office is now organized”).

Why not use har organiserat?

Har organiserat is the active perfect: the subject is the doer (“I have organized something”). To say the office itself is in an organized state, you use either the -s passive or vara + past participle. If you wanted to keep the active, you’d need a person as subject (e.g. Jag har organiserat mitt kontor).

Where does nu belong? Can I say Mitt kontor är nu organiserat?

Swedish main clauses follow V2 (verb-second). If the subject comes first, adverbs like nu usually follow the predicate: “Mitt kontor är organiserat nu.”
You can also place nu right after the verb for emphasis: “Mitt kontor är nu organiserat.” Both orders are correct.

Can I start with Nu and still keep proper word order?

Yes. If you front Nu, you still need V2, so the verb comes second:
“Nu är mitt kontor organiserat.”
(Adverb Nu – Verb är – Subject mitt kontor – Past participle organiserat.)

Could I drop nu if the time reference is clear?

Absolutely. “Mitt kontor är organiserat” already means “My office is organized.” You add nu only to stress that the change/result is right now.

Is organiserat here identical to the supine form?

It looks the same, but role differs:

• As a supine (with har/“have”), it forms perfect tenses (Jag har organiserat).
• As a past participle (with vara/“be”), it forms the resultative passive (Kontoret är organiserat). Context tells you which function it serves.
