Toegevoerde

Toegevoerde is a Dutch adjective form used to describe something that has been brought in, supplied, or added to a system, dataset, or process. It is the past participle of the verb toevoeren and functions as an attributive adjective when placed before a noun, agreeing with the noun in number and gender. In practice, the form is most often encountered in technical or formal contexts.

In Dutch, the prefix toe- signals addition, and the base verb voeren means to carry or convey. When used to express addition or introduction, toevoeren yields a participle that can appear as toegevoerde before a noun. The closely related verb toevoegen, meaning “to add,” produces the common participle toegevoegd and the attributive toegevoegde. Thus, toegevoerde is more typical for contexts tied to the act of bringing something into a system or process, whereas toegevoegde is more common for things that are added in a general sense.

Usage and context: Toegevoerde is found in fields such as data processing, logistics, and manufacturing, where it denotes items that have been entered, supplied, or incorporated. Examples include toegevoerde gegevens (entered data) and toegevoerde producten (supplied products). The term is relatively niche outside these registers, and many speakers will prefer toegevoegde or related phrases depending on the exact verb and nuance.
