anmälde

Anmälde is the preterite (past tense) form of the Swedish verb anmäla, which means to report, notify, or file a report to an authority or organization. The act of anmäla can concern crimes, accidents, missing persons, complaints, or registrations, among other matters. The word is commonly used when describing that someone has communicated information to an official body.

Common contexts include reporting a crime or incident to the police, informing authorities about an accident, or submitting a notification to a public agency or organization. The noun form related to this action is anmälan, meaning a report or notification that has been filed or is to be filed.

Grammatical notes: anmäla is conjugated in the present tense as anmäler, in the past tense as anmälde, and the supine form is anmält. The past participle used with auxiliary verbs (such as har) is also anmält, as in har anmält. These forms are used across formal and informal contexts to describe completed reporting actions.

Related terms include anmälan (the act or result of filing a report), anmäld (reported, as an adjective or past participle form in certain constructions), and anmäla sig, which means to enroll or register oneself in a particular situation. Anmälde thus functions as a key verb for documentation, oversight, and administrative procedures in Swedish.
