ajoutés

Ajoutés is the masculine plural form of the past participle of the French verb ajouter, meaning added. In French, it can function as part of compound tenses or as an adjective, and it agrees with the noun it modifies in gender and number (ajouté, ajoutés, ajoutée, ajoutées).

As a participle used in compound tenses, ajoutés appears with auxiliary être or avoir, depending on the verb form and object placement. When used as an adjective, it describes items that have been added to a set, list, or collection, and it must agree in number and gender with the noun it modifies. For example, on a list of items, one might speak of "les éléments ajoutés" (the added elements) or "des lignes ajoutées" (the added lines).

Common domains for the term include publishing, data management, and software documentation. In publishing, the phrase "éléments ajoutés" may refer to new content appended to a document. In data and software contexts, it is used to describe entries, files, or features that have been introduced in a revision, release, or update, as in "fichiers ajoutés au répertoire" or "nouvelles fonctionnalités ajoutées."

Etymology: ajoutés derives from ajouter (to add) with the standard French past participle formation, and its various gender-number forms reflect typical French agreement rules.
