Notiert

Notiert is the past participle of the German verb notieren, which means to note, jot down, or to record. It is used to indicate that information has been written down or registered and can function in different grammatical roles, including as part of a perfect tense form or as an attributive or predicative adjective.

As a verb form, notiert appears in combinations with auxiliary haben to form the perfect: for example, Ich habe das Datum notiert (I have noted the date). It can also occur in reflexive constructions such as Ich habe mir das notiert (I have noted that down for myself). In passive constructions, notiert appears with the appropriate auxiliary and voice: Es ist notiert (It is noted) or Es wurde notiert (It was noted).

As an attributive adjective, notiert can describe a noun to convey that it has been noted or recorded. It inflects according to gender, number, and case, for example: ein notiertes Protokoll (a noted/recorded protocol), eine notierte Notiz (a noted note), die notierten Punkte (the noted points).

Usage and nuances: Notiert is common in administrative, academic, and journalistic contexts where accurate recording of information is important. It is distinct from the noun Notiz (note) and from Notierung or Notation, which refer to the note itself or to notation systems more broadly.

Etymology: Notieren stems from notare in Latin, meaning to mark or note. The past participle notiert follows standard German inflection patterns for weak verbs, allowing it to function as both a finite participle and an adjective in sentences.
