Tilætluðum

Tilætluðum is an Icelandic term that functions as the dative plural form of the adjective tilætlaður, meaning "intended" or "planned." It is used to describe plural nouns in the dative case in formal or written Icelandic, such as legal, administrative, or planning texts. The base adjective tilætlaður stems from the verb tilætla, "to intend," and is connected to the noun ætlun, "intention," through standard Icelandic adjective formation.

In usage, tilætluðum appears in phrases that refer to things that are planned or intended, often in the context of policies, projects, or procedures. Examples include tilætluðum markmiðum verkefnisins ("the intended goals of the project") and tilætluðum aðgerðum ("planned measures"). The exact form may vary depending on context, including the definiteness of the noun and its grammatical role in the sentence. Because Icelandic adjectives agree with the noun in gender, number, and case, the form tilætluðum reflects the noun it modifies being plural and in the dative.

Context and nuance: tilætlaður and its inflected forms are commonly found in formal written Icelandic rather than casual speech. They convey a sense of intention or design that has been planned or proposed, rather than what is already realized.
