Grammatical notes

In compound tenses, the agreement of planifiée follows typical French rules for past participles. With the auxiliary être, the participle agrees in gender and number with the subject (La réunion a été planifiée). With the auxiliary avoir, the participle generally does not agree when the direct object follows the verb (Elle a planifié la réunion). If the direct object precedes the verb, the participle may agree (La réunion qu’elle a planifiée).

Origin and usage

Planifiée is derived from planifier, the verb meaning to plan. The feminine form is standard when the noun it modifies is feminine. The term is widely used in administrative, business, and project-management contexts, as well as in everyday French, to indicate that an event, task, or process has been prepared in advance.

Related terms include planification (planning) and planificateur/planificatrice (planner). The word is primarily used in French-language writing and speech to convey pre-arranged or scheduled status.
