Dianugerahi

Dianugerahi is an Indonesian verb in the passive voice meaning “to be awarded” or “to be conferred (with)” an honor, award, or gift. It is used when the subject receives an award or recognition from another party, such as an institution, organization, or person.

In grammar, dianugerahi is the passive form of the active verb menganugerahi (to grant or confer) and is related to the noun anugerah (gift or honor). The agent of the awarding can be introduced with oleh, but is often omitted when the context is clear. Example sentences include: Ia dianugerahi penghargaan internasional atas kontribusinya. Universitas X dianugerahi gelar doktor kehormatan kepada Prof. Y. In everyday language, more common verbs for less formal contexts are diberi or menerima, but dianugerahi carries a formal, ceremonial nuance.

Common collocations describe the type of award: penghargaan, gelar kehormatan, medali, hadiah, and kehormatan. The term is widely used in news reports, official statements, and biographical narratives to emphasize formal recognition rather than the act of giving itself.

Etymology and related forms: dianugerahi derives from anugerah (gift, honor) and the verb anugerahi/menganugerahkan, with the di- prefix marking passive voice. Related terms include anugerah (award), penghargaan (recognition), and gelar kehormatan (honorary degree). See also: menerima, diberi, menganugerahkan.
