noté

Noté is the past participle of the French verb noter, meaning to note, to record, or to remark. It is also used as an adjective meaning "noted" or "recorded." The term derives from Old French noter, from Latin nota meaning a mark or sign.

In grammar, noté appears in compound tenses with the auxiliary avoir: j'ai noté, tu as noté, il a noté. Because the auxiliary is avoir, the past participle normally does not agree with the subject; however, it may agree with a preceding direct object. For example: les remarques que j'ai notées (the remarks that I noted down). As an adjective, noté agrees in gender and number: un point noté, une note notée, des points notés, des notes notées.

Common usages include its use in everyday writing to indicate that something has been recorded or observed. The phrase à noter is frequently employed to flag information that should be remembered or highlighted, as in À noter: les horaires ont changé (It should be noted that the schedules have changed).

Noté is related to other forms such as noter (to note) and notation (the act or system of noting). In translation, noté can correspond to English noted or recorded, depending on the context, and it often appears in both formal documentation and informal notes. The word is part of standard French lexicon and appears in journalism, administrative language, and academic writing.
