beantragtet

Beantragtet is the second-person plural simple past form of the German verb beantragen, meaning to apply for or to submit a formal request. It is a finite verb form that appears with the subject ihr (you all) and describes a completed action in the past. In most contemporary speech, the simple past of this verb is uncommon; speakers more often use the perfect tense, as in ihr habt beantragt.

In standard German, the full paradigm for beantragen includes forms such as ich beantragte, du beantragtest, er beantragte, wir beantragten, ihr beantragtet, sie beantragten. The form beantragtet specifically corresponds to the ihr-subject in the Präteritum. While technically correct, beantragtet tends to occur more frequently in written or formal narrative and is less common in everyday conversation, where ihr habt beantragt would be used instead.

Etymology traces beantragen to a composite of be- plus antragen, a verb formation historically linked to presenting or submitting a request. The sense evolved into applying for permissions, benefits, or documents. Beantragen remains a regular verb in German conjugation; beantragtet is simply one inflected form, not a stand-alone lexeme.
