Atlikta

Atlikta is a Lithuanian participle form derived from the verb atlikti, meaning to perform, carry out, or complete. It functions as a past passive participle and as an adjective, describing actions or results that have already been finished. The form agrees with the noun it modifies in gender and number; for example, atliktas darbas (a completed work) and atlikta užduotis (a completed task). In plural, forms such as atlikti darbai (completed works) or atliktos užduotys (completed tasks) are used, depending on the noun’s gender and number.

In everyday language, atlikta appears in sentences like Užduotis atlikta; the task has been completed, or Darbas atliktas; the work has been completed. It can also appear in predicative position, as in Darbas atliktas, which is common in news reports, summaries, or conclusive statements. In official documents or project management contexts, Atlikta may function as a concise status label indicating completion, similar to the English “Done” or “Completed.”

Etymology and semantics: atlikta is formed from the verb atlikti with the prefix at-, which adds a sense of accomplishment or completion. The participle is used to describe actions that have already been finished and often appears in administrative, academic, or descriptive text to indicate result rather than process.

Form and usage notes: Because it behaves like an adjective, atlikta changes form to match the noun’s gender and number. It does not itself express tense; tense is provided by auxiliary verbs or by context (e.g., buvo atliktas = was completed). Overall, atlikta is a common linguistic tool in Lithuanian to convey that an action has been completed.
