Anbringad

Anbringad is a Swedish adjective and past participle meaning "attached," "affixed," or "mounted." It is derived from the verb anbringa, which means to bring onto or apply onto something. In use, anbringad describes objects or features that have been installed or put on a surface, for example a label, sign, badge, or marking that has been fixed in place.

Etymology: The form comprises the prefix an- meaning on or toward and the verb bringa (to bring). The past passive participle is used with the noun it modifies, forming a compound description of placement or attachment.

Morphology: In standard Swedish, the participle inflects like other adjectives: anbringad (common gender singular), anbringat (neuter singular), and anbringade (plural). It can also appear in definite forms such as den anbringade skylten or de anbringade skyltarna.

Usage: The term is common in technical, administrative, and legal contexts, where items are described by their state of attachment. It contrasts with verbs that emphasize the act of attaching (anbringa) rather than the result. It can be used attributively or predicatively: den anbringade märket fastnade ordentligt, or märningen var anbringad.

See also: anbringa, etikett, märkning, fästa.

Notes: Spellings and inflection may vary slightly among modern Swedish dialects or style guides; anbringad remains the standard form in most contemporary Swedish texts.
