Finalisée

Finalisée is the feminine singular past participle form of the French verb finaliser. As an adjective, it indicates that something has been completed, brought to a conclusion, or approved in its final state. In legal, administrative, and professional contexts, one speaks of a version finalisée, a document finalisée, or a proposition finalisée. The masculine counterpart is finalisé, and the plural forms are finalisés (masculine) and finalisées (feminine or mixed).

Etymology and morphology: finaliser derives from the root fin- (end) with the suffix -al plus the -iser ending; finalisée agrees in gender and number with the noun it modifies. This feminine form follows standard agreement patterns for -iser verbs in French.

Usage: as part of compound tenses, finaliser takes être or avoir; when used as an adjective, finalisée agrees with the noun: La version finalisée du contrat a été signée; Les documents finalisés ont été déposés. It is commonly used to describe completed artifacts—documents, plans, proposals, products, or processes. In descriptions of ongoing work, one may instead use en cours de finalisation or en instance de finalisation.
