calcolati

Calcolati is the masculine plural form of the Italian past participle calcolato, derived from the verb calcolare. In Italian, calcolato is used both as a past participle in compound tenses and as an adjective. Calcolati, as the masculine plural, agrees with the noun it modifies, for example costi calcolati, dati calcolati, valori calcolati. It is commonly found in technical, scientific, and financial language to indicate numbers or results that have been computed.

As a past participle in the passive voice, calcolato appears with essere in phrases such as i costi sono stati calcolati, where it agrees with the subject. When used attributively, calcolati serves as an ordinary adjective and inherits the gender and number of the noun it describes.

Semantically, calcolati can describe elided or deliberate computation: it denotes that something has been calculated or devised rather than left to guesswork. The term can also carry a nuanced connotation of premeditation when applied to actions or behavior, as in un comportamento calcolato (a calculated or calculatedly planned behavior).

Related terms include calcolo (calculation) and calcolatore or calcolatrice (calculator), which share the same linguistic family. Calcolati thus functions as a versatile indicator of computed values or deliberate design in Italian usage.
