avslöjad

Avslöjad is a Swedish adjective meaning revealed or disclosed. It is the past participle of avslöja, to reveal, and is used to describe information, findings, or objects that have been made public. The word can be used both attributively and predicatively, as in a phrase like en avslöjad hemlighet (a revealed secret) or uppgiften var avslöjad (the information was revealed).

In journalism and media, avslöjad often appears in headlines and summaries to indicate that new facts have been brought to light. Common collocations include avslöjad information, avslöjade uppgifter, avslöjda dokument, and avslöjanden about a public figure. The related noun avslöjande refers to the act of revealing or a revelation, and avslöjanden is the plural form.

Etymology and morphology follow standard Swedish patterns: avslöjad is formed from the verb avslöja with the past participle ending -ad, functioning as an adjective that agrees with the noun it modifies. The term is widely understood in Swedish-speaking contexts and carries a neutral, factual connotation when used in reporting or descriptive writing.

Culturally, avslöjad can appear as a title or subtitle in Swedish media or literature to signal that content contains previously undisclosed material. It is often part of a broader lexicon related to transparency, investigative journalism, and public accountability.
