ändret

Ændret is the capitalized Danish form of the adjective ændret, which is the past participle of the verb ændre, meaning to change or alter. As an adjective, ændret describes something that has been modified or revised. It is used both attributively and predicatively, for example: et ændret forhold (a changed condition) and Planen er ændret (the plan has been changed).

In Danish spelling, ändret is inflected to agree with gender and number. Indefinite singular examples include en ændret plan (a changed plan) and et ændret forhold (a changed condition). Definite forms and plural forms follow standard Danish adjective inflection conventions, such as den ændrede plan (the changed plan) and de ændrede planer (the changed plans).

Ændret is common in official, technical, and administrative language, where it signals that a document, policy, or proposal has been revised. It can appear as a heading or label in updates, for instance as Ændret 12. marts 2024, indicating a revised edition date.

Etymology and cognates: the word derives from the Danish verb ændre; cognates exist in other Scandinavian languages, such as Norwegian endret and Swedish ändrad, all conveying the sense of something that has been altered.
