Abgekühlte

Abgekühlte is a German adjective meaning "cooled down" or "chilled." It is the past participle of the verb abkühlen, which means "to cool down." The word can be used to describe a variety of things that have lost heat.

In a physical context, abgekühlte refers to substances or objects that have lowered their temperature. For example, one might refer to abgekühlte Suppe (cooled-down soup) or abgekühlte Luft (cooled-down air). This can occur naturally over time or be the result of a deliberate cooling process.
