angezogenem

Angezogenem is a German adjective form derived from the past participle angezogen, itself from the verbanziehen (to put on clothing; to attract). It is not a separate word with a fixed meaning, but a declined form used when describing a masculine or neuter noun in the dative singular without a preceding determiner, i.e., in the strong declension.

In German grammar, attributive adjectives change their endings according to case, gender, number and article type. The form angezogenem occurs in the dative singular masculine or neuter when there is no determiner before the noun. If a determiner is present (for example dem or einem), the ending of the attributive adjective changes according to the declension pattern that determiner requires (the form can become angezogenen or similar, depending on the exact construction).

Usage examples include phrases describing clothing that has been put on. For instance: mit angezogenem Schuh (with a shoe that has been put on) or mit angezogenem Kleid (with a dress that has been put on). These illustrate how angezogenem marks the dative singular masculine or neuter noun’s description without an article.

Beyond clothing, angezogen can also function as a past participle meaning “attracted” in other contexts, but in the form angezogenem it is predominantly an attributive, inflected adjective used with a dative noun in everyday speech. The form’s exact ending can vary with different determiners and prepositional contexts, reflecting standard German adjective declension rules.
