angewandtem

Angewandtem is not a standalone word in German but the dative singular form of the adjective angewandt, which means applied or utilized. It appears when the adjective modifies a noun in the dative case and there is little or no determiner preceding the noun, often in technical or scholarly contexts.

Grammatically, angewandt functions as a participial adjective derived from the verb anwenden (to apply). In German adjective declension, the form in the dative singular masculine or neuter without a definite article is typically written as angewandtem. For example, mit angewandtem Wissen means with applied knowledge, and bei angewandtem Material means with applied material. If a definite article is present, the ending changes (for instance, dem angewandten Wissen).

Usage notes include that angewandtem primarily occurs in formal or specialized text, such as scientific, engineering, or policy language, to distinguish practical or implemented aspects from theoretical ones. It is less common in everyday speech, where speakers might use alternatives like angewandt or praktische Anwendung depending on the context.

Related terms include angewandt (the strong or past participle form used attributively in other cases), Anwendung (application), and Anwendungsmöglichkeiten (application possibilities). The concept contrasts with theoretical or 原理-oriented language, where terms like theoretisch or Grundlagen may be used.

In translation, English equivalents depend on context but often render angewandtem as "applied" or "appliedly" within the noun phrase, as in "applied knowledge" or "applied methods." The exact ending, such as angewandtem, reflects the grammatical role rather than a separate lexical entry.
