gebogener

Gebogener is a German adjective meaning bent or curved in shape. It derives from the past participle gebogen of the verb biegen (to bend) and is used to describe objects that are not straight, such as wires, rods, arches, or profiles.

In ordinary usage, gebogener is most commonly found as an attributive adjective, taking different endings according to gender, number, and case. For example, with a masculine nominative singular noun after the indefinite article, one can say ein gebogener Draht (a bent wire). Predicative constructions use the past participle gebogen without the -er ending: Der Draht ist gebogen (The wire is bent).

Gebogener has the typical inflection patterns of German adjectives. Plural and other gender/case forms appear as gebogene, gebogenen, or gebogener, depending on the determiner and the noun. This makes gebogener a productive descriptor in technical and everyday language alike.

Usage and context tend to be practical rather than theoretical. It is commonly employed in engineering, architecture, design, and crafts to characterize components, shapes, or finished forms that exhibit curvature. While not a technical term in itself, it helps specify physical geometry in precise descriptions.
