corregido

Corregido is the past participle of the Spanish verb corregir, meaning to correct or to amend. As an adjective, corregido describes something that has been corrected or revised, and as a past participle it appears in compound tenses with the auxiliary verb haber (for example, he corregido, has corregido). It also functions in the passive voice, as in “el informe fue corregido”.

Etymology and related forms: corregir comes from Latin corrīgĕre, a compound form involving a root meaning to set straight or rectify. The word has the standard feminine and plural agreements: corregido, corregida; corregidos, corregidas.

Usage and nuances: Corregido is widely used in editorial, administrative, and technical contexts to denote that errors or problems have been addressed. In formal writing, phrases like “versión corregida” or “texto corregido” indicate that a revision has been completed. The term stresses the outcome of a correction rather than the act itself, which is conveyed by corregir in its finite forms or by haber + corregido.

Examples: “La versión corregida del documento ya está disponible.” “Hemos corregido los errores en el informe.” The gender and number of the participle must agree with the noun it modifies or the subject in compound tenses: un informe corregido, una versión corregida, los archivos corregidos.
