Identyfikowany

Identyfikowany is a Polish past participle formed from the verb identyfikować (to identify). It functions as a passive or adjectival form and describes something that has been identified or is in the process of being identified. The term is used across different domains, including law enforcement, information technology, medicine and data protection, to characterize persons, objects, cases or data that have undergone identification.

Grammar and variations: identyfikowany is the masculine singular form; identyfikowana is feminine singular; identyfikowane is neuter singular. In plural, forms include identyfikowani (masculine personal), identyfikowane (non-masculine or mixed groups). The related active participle is identyfikujący, meaning “identifying,” while the noun form is identyfikacja or identyfikowanie.

Usage and contexts: In criminal proceedings or media, one might speak of identyfikowana osoba (the identified person) or identyfikowany podejrzany (the identified suspect). In information technology or data protection, identyfikowany użytkownik or identyfikowane dane refer to a user or data that have been identified or are used to identify someone. The phrase dane identyfikujące is more common than dane identyfikacyjne for “identifying data,” though both appear in legal and technical texts.

See also: identyfikacja, identyfikacja biometryczna, dane identyfikacyjne, identyfikowalny. The term remains neutral in tone and is primarily a descriptive descriptor rather than a judgment, suitable for formal and technical writing.
