Dihapus

Dihapus is an Indonesian word that functions as the passive form of the verb hapus (to delete or erase). It literally means "has been deleted" or "to be deleted" and is used to indicate that something has undergone the action of deletion. The prefix di- marks a passive construction, and the root hapus conveys the act of removing or erasing. The agent performing the deletion may be omitted or introduced with oleh.

In practical use, dihapus appears in contexts such as information technology, data management, and publishing. Examples: "Berkas itu telah dihapus" (The file has been deleted). "Data pribadi dihapus sesuai kebijakan privasi." "Konten yang dihapus dari situs." The passive form can refer to completed actions (telah dihapus) or simple states (dihapus). The agent can be specified: "oleh admin" for example.

Related terms include hapus (active verb), penghapusan (the act of deletion or deletion process), and terhapus (has disappeared, often due to automatic or involuntary removal). These forms help describe different aspects of removal and are used across formal and informal Indonesian.
