reemplaçades

Reemplaçades is the feminine plural form of the past participle of the Catalan verb reemplaçar, meaning "replaced." It functions primarily as an adjective that agrees with feminine plural nouns, describing items that have undergone substitution. In typical use, it appears in phrases such as les peces reemplaçades (the replaced parts) or components reemplaçades in technical texts. Although it can appear as part of a description in maintenance or engineering documentation, it is less common to see reemplaçades used as a stand-alone noun; in such contexts writers often prefer substitutes like reemplaçaments or substitucions to denote “replacements.”

Etymology and form: The word derives from the verb reemplaçar, built with the prefix re- (again, or anew) and the root reemplaçar. The entity is inflected to match gender and number, so feminine plural nouns take the form reemplaçades.

Usage notes: Reemplaçades agrees with the noun it modifies in gender and number. It is most frequent in technical, industrial, or maintenance language. For non-technical Catalan, speakers may instead use phrases like les peces substituïdes or les peces reemplaçades, depending on regional preference and style guides.
