Planuotos

Planuotos is a Lithuanian word that is the feminine plural form of the past passive participle of the verb planuoti, meaning to plan. It functions as an adjective and is used to describe things that have been planned or scheduled. It agrees with feminine plural nouns, for example with kelionės (trips) or dovanos (gifts).

Usage and examples: It commonly appears with nouns referring to events, schedules, or tasks. For instance, planned trips are expressed as planuotos kelionės. Another example is planuotos dovanos. Example sentences include: Planuotos kelionės buvo atšauktos. (The planned trips were canceled.) Planuotos dovanos buvo pristatytos. (The planned gifts were delivered.)

Grammatical notes: In Lithuanian, participles can be used attributively to modify nouns or predicatively in sentences. Planuotos kelionės is a typical attributive use, describing the trips as already planned. The form will change to match the gender and number of the noun it modifies; feminine plural forms like planuotos are used with feminine plural nouns.

Etymology and relation to planuoti: The form derives from the verb planuoti and the participial suffix that marks it as a past passive participle. As a result, planuotos communicates that something has undergone planning or scheduling, and it is commonly found in contexts dealing with schedules, events, and project planning.
