meegebrachte

Meegebrachte is a Dutch attributive adjective meaning “brought along” and is used to describe something that has been brought to a place or event. It derives from the verb meebrengen (to bring along). The past participle of meebrengen is gebracht; when used as an attributive adjective before a noun, the form is meegebrachte. In standard Dutch, adjectives in this position take an -e ending in singular definite forms and in all plural forms, for example: het meegebrachte boek, de meegebrachte boeken, de meegebrachte documenten.

Usage tends to cover tangible items, documents, information, or even more abstract things associated with an occasion. Examples: Het meegebrachte boek werd tijdens de lezing gedeeld. De meegebrachte documenten bleken relevant voor de audit.

The phrase is distinct from the non-attributive past participle meegebracht, which appears in compound tenses or predicative constructions such as Ik heb het meegebracht (I have brought it along). Meegebrachte is specifically the attributive adjective form used before a noun, aligning with general Dutch adjective inflection rules.

In sum, meegebrachte functions as a standard way to describe things that were brought along for a journey, meeting, or event, and it is commonly used in both spoken and written Dutch.
