accommodatus

Accommodatus is a Latin participle and adjective derived from the verb accommodare, meaning to fit, adapt, or provide with what is needed. In classical and ecclesiastical Latin, accommodatus generally translates as “having been accommodated” or “adapted,” and it functions as a perfect passive participle that agrees with the noun it modifies.

Morphology and forms: The participle follows standard Latin formation with the suffix -atus. The masculine nominative singular is accommodatus, the feminine accommodata, and the neuter accommodatum; plural forms are accommodati, accommodatae, accommodata.

Usage: In Latin texts the word can describe objects, arrangements, or individuals that have been prepared or adjusted for a particular purpose. It may appear in inscriptions or narrative passages to convey the sense that something has been made suitable for use or fitted to a situation.

Modern context: Outside Latin grammar and historical philology, accommodatus is not a common term in English. It is typically encountered only in linguistic discussions of Latin participles or when consulting Latin editions that retain authentic forms. In scientific naming, Latin adjectives of the -atus form are common, but accommodatus itself is not a standard technical epithet in contemporary nomenclature.
