installerede

Installerede is the simple past tense form of the Danish verb installere, meaning to install. It denotes a completed action in the past, such as setting up software, equipment, or a system. The present tense is installerer, and the past participle is installeret, which is used to describe a state resulting from the action, as in softwaren er installeret (the software is installed).

Conjugation and usage: In the singular and plural, common forms are jeg installerede, du installerede, han/hun/den installerede, vi installerede, I installerede, de installerede. The form is primarily used in written Danish and in narratives to recount past installation events. In everyday speech, the perfect tense with har is more common, for example jeg har installeret programmet (I have installed the program).

Etymology and notes: The verb is borrowed from French installer, which in turn derives from Latin instalare. The Danish form installerede follows regular Danish past-tense inflection patterns. There is a close relationship between installerede (preterite) and installeret (past participle), which is used to describe the resulting state after installation.

Examples: Jeg installerede programmet i går. Firmaet installerede den nye software sidste uge. Teknikerne installerede den nye enhed i datacentret. In technical documentation, both installerede and har installeret can appear, depending on whether the focus is on the past event or the resulting state.
