lizensierte

Lizensierte is not the standard spelling in German. In standard German, the adjective meaning “licensed” is lizenzierte, formed from the noun Lizenz (license) and the verb lizenzieren. It describes something or someone that has been granted a license or authorization.

The form lizensierte is generally regarded as a misspelling or nonstandard variant. It can appear in older texts, typographical errors, or in contexts where orthographic accuracy is not strictly observed. The correct spelling in modern German follows the root Lizenz with a z, not an s, in compounds and related forms.

Usage of lizenzierte occurs in regulatory, professional, and technical language. It can be used attributively or predicatively, with proper agreement to gender and number: ein lizenzierter Arzt, eine lizenzierte Software, lizenzierte Produkte, lizenzierte Betreiber. In specialized contexts, terms such as Lizenznehmer (licensee) and Lizenzgeber (licensor) are common, while lizenzierte Dinge or Dienstleistungen emphasize that a legal license governs their use or operation.
