Dopuszczona

Dopuszczona is the feminine singular past participle of the Polish verb dopuszczać, meaning to admit, allow, or authorize. As an adjective, it indicates that a feminine noun has been permitted or approved. It agrees with feminine singular nouns; the corresponding forms for other genders and numbers are dopuszczony (masculine singular), dopuszczone (neuter singular), dopuszczeni (masculine personal plural), and dopuszczone (feminine or neuter plural).

The noun form related to the concept is dopuszczenie, meaning admission, allowance, or approval, while the related adjective dopuszczalny means admissible or permissible. The term is widely used in legal, administrative, regulatory, and formal contexts, including settings like certification, testing, and funding.

In usage, dopuszczona often appears in phrases describing procedures, products, or persons that have received authorization. Examples include: "Procedura dopuszczona do stosowania" (a procedure approved for use), "Kandydatka dopuszczona do programu rekrutacyjnego" (a female candidate admitted to the recruitment program). Note that grammatical agreement depends on the gender and number of the noun it modifies; for a masculine noun, dopuszczony is used (e.g., produkt dopuszczony do obrotu).

Etymologically, the word derives from the prefix do- and the verb puszczać, with the sense of allowing entry or integration into a system, process, or regime. Dopuszczona remains a common term in everyday and official Polish when describing something that has met the required permits or standards.
