dibentuk

Dibentuk is an Indonesian word that functions as the passive participle of the verb bentuk, meaning to form or shape. It indicates that something has been formed, shaped, or created by someone or something. The scope can be physical, such as a statue or product, or abstract, such as a plan or organization.

Grammatically, dibentuk is formed with the prefix di- to mark passive voice. The agent performing the shaping may be stated with oleh, but is often omitted when the focus is on the result rather than the doer. Tense and aspect are usually shown through context or auxiliary words, such as telah (past), sedang (present ongoing), or akan (future). As an adjective, it can modify nouns: “struktur yang dibentuk,” “kebijakan yang dibentuk.”

In usage, dibentuk emphasizes the result of a shaping process. It can describe tangible items, like “produk ini dibentuk dari logam,” or intangible formations, such as “tim dibentuk untuk mengawasi proyek” or “rencana kebijakan yang dibentuk oleh pemerintah.” The related active verb membentuk conveys the action of shaping, while pembentukan refers to the act or process of formation.

See also: bentuk, membentuk, pembentukan, pembentuk. This term is common in descriptions of design, manufacturing, and organizational development, where the outcome is a deliberate shaping of form, structure, or policy.
