sformuowani

Sformuowani is a Polish term functioning as a past participle adjective. It is the masculine personal plural form of the past passive participle of the verb sformułować, which means to formulate, to shape into a form, or to devise. The form signals that a noun it modifies has been formulated or devised in a deliberate manner.

Etymology and related forms: It derives from sformułować, itself built on the stem formuła (formula) with the prefix s-, indicating completion or result. Related forms include sformułowany (masc. singular), sformułowana (fem. singular), and sformułowane (neuter singular or plural), among others.

Usage: Sformuowani can appear in formal and institutional contexts to characterize people, statements, plans, rules, or conditions that have been devised. It can appear before or after the noun: sformułowani uczestnicy, warunki sformułowane, tezy sformułowane. In English-language translations it is often rendered as “formulated” or “formulated ones,” depending on context.

Note: The word is more common in written Polish than in everyday speech, and is typically found in policy documents, legal texts, or analytical writings.
