einreichte

Einreichte is a finite form of the German verb einreichen, which means to submit or file something with an authority, institution, or organization. The base verb einreichen is separable: in many tenses the prefix ein is separated from reichen, as in er reicht den Antrag heute ein. The standard preterite form is er reichte ein, and the past participle used with haben is eingereicht (er hat den Antrag eingereicht).

In usage, einreichen covers actions such as submitting applications, documents, or proposals. It is common in administrative, legal, academic, and bureaucratic contexts. Typical expressions include einen Antrag einreichen (to submit an application), Unterlagen einreichen (to file documents), or eine Bewerbung einreichen (to submit a job application). The act itself can be referred to as das Einreichen, a noun form that denotes the procedure or process of submission.

Grammatical notes help distinguish forms: eingereicht is the past participle, used with auxiliary haben in perfect constructions (z. B. Die Unterlagen sind eingereicht worden). The attributive form eingereichte, as in eine eingereichte Bewerbung, describes a submission that has already been made. Speakers may also encounter narrative uses of reichte ein in the Präteritum, where the prefix remains separated.
