anzureichern

Anzureichern is a nonstandard or rarely used form that appears as a variant of the German verb anreichern, which means to enrich or to supplement something with additional content, data, or materials. In standard German, the infinitive is anreichern, and anzureichern is not widely recognized in major dictionaries. When encountered, anzureichern is usually considered a nonstandard spelling, a typographical error, or a regional/creative variant.

Etymology and usage notes: the standard verb is built from the prefix an- plus reichern, yielding the sense of adding richness or value to something. This verb is used across fields such as science, information processing, and media to describe enhancing content with extra elements. The correct past participle is angereichert, and the present tense may appear as ich reiche an, du reichst an, er reichert an in finite forms, with the past participle used in passive or perfect constructions.

Examples in standard usage include: Die Daten werden durch neue Messungen angereichert. (The data are enriched with new measurements.) Der Text wurde mit Hintergrundinformationen angereichert. (The text was enriched with background information.) In nuclear or materials contexts the related noun Anreicherung (enrichment) is common, for example Urananreicherung.

Summary: anzureichern is not a standard entry in German lexicons. For clear communication, prefer the standard infinitive anreichern and its correct inflected forms, or refer to Anreicherung as the noun for the process of enrichment. If a source uses anzureichern, treat it as nonstandard and verify with a reliable dictionary or a stylistic guide.
