neregulat

Neregulat is a Romanian adjective meaning not regular or irregular. It is used to describe deviations from standard patterns across a range of domains, including language, mathematics, biology, and daily schedules.

The form is built from the prefix ne- attached to regulat, an adjective derived from regula (rule) with Latin roots. In Romanian grammar, the term is commonly applied to describe irregular verbs, whose conjugation does not follow the regular patterns. It can also describe irregular phenomena, such as growth, timing, or shapes that do not conform to a standard or expected rule.

In practice, neregulat appears in both technical and general discourse. For example, in linguistics and language teaching one might discuss verbe neregulate (irregular verbs) versus verbe regulate (regular verbs). Outside of grammar, the term is used in scientific and descriptive writing to denote irregular data, irregular intervals, or irregularly shaped objects, among other irregularities. While the basic meaning is straightforward, the precise sense is often clarified by the immediate context.
