ikbegeleidde

Ikbegeleidde is not a standard Dutch word. In normal writing, the past tense first-person singular of begeleiden is written as two words: ik begeleidde. The single-word form ikbegeleidde may appear only as a stylized brand name, a username, or a typographical error. Its meaning, when parsed as two words, is “I guided” or “I accompanied.”

Begeleiden means to guide, escort, supervise, or assist. It comes from a Germanic root with the prefix be- and the verb leiden (to lead). The past tense form ik begeleidde is regular: ik begeleidde, jij begeleidde, hij/zij begeleidde; the other persons follow the standard conjugation of begeleiden.

Examples: Ik begeleidde de deelnemers tijdens het museumbezoek. De begeleidende docent gaf duidelijke instructies. In spoken Dutch, the pronunciation aligns with the standard two-word form.

In formal writing, use the two-word form; one-word spellings are not standard and may be encountered only in branding, social media, or errors. Related terms include begeleiding (guidance), begeleider (supervisor/guide), and zelfbegeleiding (self-guidance).
