Gjennomgått

Gjennomgått is the past participle of the Norwegian verb gjennomgå, which means to go through, examine, or review. It is used to describe something that has been thoroughly checked, inspected, or completed, often in formal or administrative contexts such as audits, quality control, or compliance.

As a participial adjective, gjennomgått can modify a noun or appear in verb phrases with auxiliary verbs, for example har gjennomgått (has reviewed). The participle generally follows standard Norwegian agreement rules when used attributively (before a noun) or predicatively (after a linking verb). In practice, it signals that the item has passed a thorough review or examination.

Common contexts include audits, risk analyses, official reports, training programs, and documentation that has been checked or validated. Examples: en gjennomgått rapport (a reviewed report), en gjennomgått prosess (a reviewed process), gjennomgått opplæring (completed training). The term emphasizes result or completion of the review, rather than the act itself, which is more often expressed by the noun gjennomgang.

Related terms include gjennomgang, the act or process of reviewing, and gjennomgå, the verb meaning to go through or to review. Etymologically, it combines gjennom- (through) with gå (to go). Gjennomgått thus denotes the outcome of having been thoroughly inspected or evaluated.
