Dodeljeni

Dodeljeni is a participial adjective used in several South Slavic languages, meaning assigned or allocated. It is the form that results from the past passive participle of the verb dodeliti, and it agrees with the noun in gender and number. In standard usage, it appears in official, administrative, and organizational texts to indicate that something has been distributed or granted to someone or something.

Etymology and variants: dodeliti is formed from the verb deliti (to divide) with a prefix that conveys completion or fulfillment, yielding the sense of having been allocated. Depending on dialect and standard variety, the infinitive may appear as dodeliti or dodijeliti, and the corresponding participle forms adapt accordingly (for example, dodeljeni, dodeljena, dodeljeno; or dodijeljeni, dodijeljene, dodijeljeno).

Usage and examples: The word is common in government forms, project documentation, awards, and task distribution. Examples include: dodeljeni zadaci (the tasks that were assigned), dodeljene nagrade (the prizes allocated), dodeljeno rešenje (the issued decision). Its function is descriptive, not nominal, and it often appears as part of a noun phrase rather than as a standalone predicate.

See also: dodeljivanje, dodijeljivanje (the act of assigning or allocating); dodeliti/dodijeliti (to assign or allocate).

The term is generally recognized in Bosnian, Croatian, and Serbian contexts, with minor spelling differences across dialects and standard varieties. It remains a concise way to express that a distribution or designation has occurred.
