enrolladas

Enrolladas is the feminine plural form of the adjective or past participle enrollado in Spanish, derived from the verb enrollar. It is used to describe objects that have been rolled, coiled, or wound into a roll. As a descriptive term, it typically appears before a noun (for example, cintas enrolladas, hojas enrolladas) and can also form part of a passive construction such as “las hojas han quedado enrolladas.”

Etymology and form: Enrolladas comes from enrollar, a verb meaning to roll up or coil. The word follows standard Spanish rules for gender and number agreement, with enrollado becoming enrolladas to match feminine plural nouns.

Usage and contexts: In textiles and crafts, enrolladas commonly describes rolled ribbons, strips of fabric, or cords. In botany or anatomy, it can describe parts that are naturally or artificially rolled or folded, such as “hojas enrolladas” or “tubos enrollados.” In everyday language, the term appears in descriptions of objects that have taken a rolled form or are arranged in rolls.

Notes: Enrolladas is not a specialized technical term with a single strict definition; its precise meaning depends on the noun it modifies. It is a common, descriptive form used across various Spanish dialects to convey a rolled or coiled condition.
