geradas

Geradas is the feminine plural form of the Portuguese adjective gerado, which is derived from the verb gerar. In standard usage, geradas describes entities that have been produced or created and agrees in gender and number with a feminine plural noun, such as as informações geradas pela pesquisa or as propostas geradas pelo algoritmo.

Etymology and function: gerar comes from Latin generare, meaning to beget or generate. Geradas is the feminine plural participial form used to indicate outputs, results, or products of a process, especially in technical or formal contexts. It is not typically used as a stand-alone noun; rather, it modifies a feminine plural noun (for example, respostas geradas, saídas geradas, informações geradas).

Usage notes: Although primarily an adjective, geradas can appear in noun-like phrases where the implied head noun is feminine, making the phrase refer to the generated items as a group. In most writing, it remains clear only when coupled with a specific feminine noun. Correct agreement is essential: objetos gerados (masc.), informações geradas (fem. pl.), respostas geradas (fem. pl.).

Contexts: In computing, data analysis, linguistics, and research reporting, geradas commonly describes outputs produced by software, simulations, models, or experiments. Examples include informações geradas pela simulação or saídas geradas pelo sistema. It emphasizes the result of a generation process rather than the process itself.
