attrezzate

Attrezzate is the feminine plural form of the Italian adjective attrezzato, meaning equipped or outfitted. It is used to describe things that have been provided with the necessary equipment, facilities, or infrastructure. In Italian, adjectives agree with the nouns they modify, so attrezzate typically refers to plural feminine nouns such as navi attrezzate (equipped ships), strutture attrezzate (equipped facilities), and aree attrezzate (facilities with amenities).

Common contexts include maritime, industrial, tourism, and public administration. For example, navi attrezzate per ricerche scientifiche (ships equipped for scientific research); aree attrezzate per camping (campground areas with facilities); strutture attrezzate per persone con disabilità (facilities equipped for people with disabilities). The term can also appear in planning and regulatory documents to indicate that a site has the required equipment or installations, not merely empty space.

Origin and variants: attrezzare comes from the Italian verb meaning to equip or furnish, related to attrezzo, meaning tool or equipment. Related terms include attrezzatura (equipment, gear) and the plural attrezzature. Other gender and number forms are attrezzato (masc. sing.), attrezzata (fem. sing.), attrezzati (masc. pl.).

See also: attrezzatura, attrezzi, equipaggiamento; and phrases such as strutture attrezzate, impianti attrezzati. Attrezzate thus functions as a descriptive term across sectors to denote readiness and provision of necessary gear or facilities.
