resolvidas

Resolvidas is the feminine plural past participle of the Portuguese verb resolver, used as an adjective to indicate that something has been solved, decided, or settled. It agrees in gender and number with feminine plural nouns, as in examples like “questões resolvidas” or “situações resolvidas.” The corresponding forms are resolvido (masculine singular), resolvida (feminine singular), resolvidos (masculine plural), and resolvidas (feminine plural).

The term appears across various registers, including formal writing, journalism, and administrative language, typically to signal that a problem, question, or issue has been addressed. In reports or project documentation, phrases such as “itens resolvidos” or “casos resolvidos” denote items that are closed or completed. Its usage is context-dependent, and not all contexts employ past participles as adjectives in this way.

Linguistic usage notes: as a predicate adjective, resolvidas can appear with auxiliary verbs such as estar in passive-like constructions, for example “as questões estão resolvidas.” It can also occur attributively before a feminine plural noun, as in “critérios resolvidas” when the noun is feminine plural. In many cases, speakers may shift to alternative phrasing like “questões que já foram resolvidas” to emphasize timing or completeness.
