Organizada

Organizada is the feminine singular form of the past participle of the verb organizar in Spanish and Portuguese. As an adjective, it describes something that is arranged, orderly, or methodical, and it agrees in gender and number with the noun it modifies.

In Spanish, the masculine counterpart is organizado; in Portuguese, the masculine form is organizado and the feminine form is organizada. The adjective thereby follows standard gender agreement: organizada accompanies feminine nouns, while organizado accompanies masculine nouns or plural forms change accordingly (organizadas, organizados).

Etymology and form: Both Spanish and Portuguese words derive from the verb organizar, itself from the Latin or Greek roots related to organizing or arranging a system (organon and related terms). The feminine form organized the participle with the usual gender agreement suffix -ada in these languages.

Usage and context: Organized describes objects, groups, schedules, processes, or structures that are arranged in a systematic way. Examples in Spanish include una clase organizada, una agenda organizada, or una empresa organizada. In Portuguese, common uses are uma equipe organizada, um evento organizado, or uma organização organizada. The term is frequently contrasted with disorganized or with phrases referring to organization as an ongoing process.
