Värderat

Värderat is an adjective and past participle form of the Swedish verb värdera, meaning to value, assess, or appraise. It denotes that something has been given a value, usually in monetary terms, and is commonly used in neutral, factual contexts such as finance, auditing, real estate, and insurance. The word appears in passive constructions (something has been valued) and as an adjective describing objects or entities that have undergone valuation, for example when a price or worth is stated.

In practice, värderat is frequently encountered in sentences like “bolaget har värderats till 120 miljoner kronor” (the company has been valued at 120 million kronor) or “fastigheten värderades till ett visst belopp.” The term is closely linked to the processes of valuation, assessment, and appraisal. It can be complemented by nouns such as värdering (the valuation), värderingsrapport (valuation report), and värde (value). In everyday language, people may refer to something as värderat when discussing its estimated worth or market price.

Grammatical notes emphasize that värderat functions as a participle with venous agreement appropriate to neuter nouns and fixed expressions. It is often used in formal or technical Swedish, especially in financial statements, insurance documentation, and real estate appraisals. In non-technical contexts, more general verbs like bedömt or uppskattat may be used as synonyms, depending on precision and tone.

Etymology traces värderat to värdera (to value) and the noun värde (value). Related terms include värdering (valuation), värde, and värdefull, as well as specialized terms like värderingsrapport and värderingsarbete.
