aangevoerde

Aangevoerde is a Dutch adjective formed from the verb aanvoeren and used to describe items or points that have been brought forward, presented, or brought into a context. The base past participle is aangevoerd; when used attributively before a definite noun, it takes the -e ending, yielding aangevoerde (for example: aangevoerde goederen, aangevoerde argumenten). The term thus covers both physical imports and figurative presentations.

In trade and logistics, aangevoerde goederen refers to goods that have entered a country or market, typically through import channels and subject to customs or regulatory checks. In legal, political, or argumentative contexts, aangevoerde argumenten or aangevoerde bewijsmiddelen refers to arguments or evidence that have been put forward or cited in a discussion, case, or debate.

Etymologically, the form combines aan- (“toward, into” or “up”) with voeren (“to lead, to carry, to transport”), conveying the sense of things that have been carried into a new context or brought forward for consideration. The nuance can vary by domain: in a strictly logistical sense it often emphasizes importation, while in rhetoric or law it emphasizes presentation or submission.

Usage notes include the distinction between aangevoerde (presented or imported) and related terms such as ingevoerd or geïmporteerd for explicit import, or aangevoerde arguments for presented points. The term is common in official reports, trade documents, and legal or parliamentary language, where precision about whether something is being brought in or brought forward is important.
