Reguliranom

Reguliranom is a form of the adjective reguliran used in Croatian, Bosnian, and Serbian to describe something that has been regulated. The base verb is regulirati, meaning to regulate, and reguliran is formed as a past participle adjective with the suffix -an. The ending -om is one of the inflected endings that adjectives take to agree with a noun in various cases and numbers; the exact case, gender, and number must align with the noun it modifies.

In practice, reguliranom appears as a declined form when the noun it modifies is singular and requires that ending. The word functions as an adjective that conveys the sense of rules, standards, or procedures having been established or controlled by authority. It is common in formal, legal, administrative, and technical language to describe rules, standards, or regulated domains and processes.

Usage considerations: Like other participial adjectives, reguliranom can appear in attributive position (before the noun) or predicative position (after a linking verb). Its meaning remains “regulated,” and its exact grammatical fit depends on the noun’s gender, number, and case within the sentence.

Origin and related forms: Reguliranom derives from regulirati with the adjectival suffix -an. Related forms include reguliran (masculine nominative singular), regulirano (neuter), and regulirana (feminine), which share the same root and meaning.
