eingestellet

Eingestellt is a German word with multiple meanings depending on the context. Most commonly, it translates to "set," "adjusted," or "employed." When referring to something mechanical or a device, "eingestellt" indicates that it has been properly set or adjusted to a specific position or function. For example, a clock might be "eingestellt" to the correct time, or a machine's settings might be "eingestellt" for optimal performance.

In the context of employment, "eingestellt" means "hired" or "employed." When a company "stellt jemanden ein," they are hiring that person. The past participle of this action is "eingestellt." So, a person who has been hired is "eingestellt." This can also refer to the act of being admitted to an institution, such as a university.

Another usage relates to stopping or discontinuing something. In this sense, "eingestellt" can mean "ceased," "discontinued," or "suspended." For instance, a production line might be "eingestellt" if demand falls, or a legal case could be "eingestellt" if it is dropped. The specific meaning is always discernible from the surrounding words and the overall situation.
