Ráðlagður

Ráðlagður is an Icelandic adjective meaning “recommended” or “advised.” It is derived from the verb ráðleggja, to advise, and is used to indicate that something has been proposed or endorsed by authorities, experts, or guidelines. In Icelandic, adjectives agree with the gender and number of the noun they modify; the masculine singular form is typically ráðlagður, with feminine and neuter forms corresponding to the noun.

The term is common in formal and practical contexts, including health, safety, and consumer information, where guidelines or best practices are described as ráðlagðar or ráðlagð depending on the noun. In the impersonal construction роль "Það er ráðlagt að ..." the neuter form ráðlagt is used to express general advice: it is advisable to do something.

Ráðlagður is often found in headings or labels in official documents to denote guidance, such as a “ráðlagður dosage” or “ráðlagður kjarnröð” in translated or technical text, though in everyday Icelandic the neutral expression ráðlagt is more typical for general advice. The concept is closely related to ráðlegging (advice, guideline) and to the idea of recommended practices.

In summary, ráðlagður describes something that has been advised or recommended by an authority, conveying guidance rather than obligation and forming part of standard Icelandic terminology for expressing best practices and official recommendations.
