fissati

Fissati is the masculine plural past participle and an adjective in Italian, derived from the verb fissare, meaning to fix, fasten, or set. In general usage, fissati describes things that are fixed, set, or determined, and it is commonly found in contexts involving schedules, plans, measurements, or decisions.

Etymology and forms: the root is fissare, with related forms including fissato (masc. singular), fissata (fem. singular), fissati (masc. plural), and fissate (fem. plural). The word ultimately derives from Latin figere, meaning to fasten or fix.

Grammatical use: fissati can function as the past participle in compound tenses (for example, gli orari sono stati fissati, meaning the schedules have been fixed) and as an attributive adjective before nouns (orari fissati, fixed schedules). It agrees in gender and number with the noun it modifies or with the subject in compound tenses.

Common contexts: the term appears in scheduling and planning, legal or administrative language, and project management to denote something that is confirmed or established. It can describe fixed points, times, locations, or terms of an agreement. While closely related to fissare, its usage emphasizes the state of being fixed rather than the act of fixing itself.
