Indsendte

Indsendte is a Danish verb form derived from the infinitive indsende, meaning to submit or send in something to a repository, authority, competition, or process. It denotes actions completed in the past and is commonly used in formal and administrative contexts.

In Danish, indsendte is the simple past tense (preterite) form. It is used with both singular and plural subjects: jeg indsendte, du indsendte, han indsendte, vi indsendte, de indsendte. The related past participle is indsendt, which appears in perfect and passive constructions, such as har indsendt or blev indsendt. For example: Jeg indsendte min ansøgning i går. Dokumentet blev indsendt af myndighederne. Jeg har indsendt mine papirer.

Etymologically, indsendte combines the prefix ind- (into, in) with sende (to send). The form is cognate with other Scandinavian languages, such as Norwegian innsendte and Swedish inskickade, reflecting shared Germanic roots in referencing submission or filing.

Common contexts for indsendte include applications, reports, manuscripts, tenders, and other formal submissions. The term focuses on the action of delivering material for consideration, review, or official processing, rather than on subsequent outcomes.

See also: indsende (the infinitive), indsendelse (the act of submitting), indsendt (the past participle form). The usage of indsendte versus indsendt aligns with Danish tense and voice, with indsendte marking past action and indsendt serving as a participle in compound tenses.
