synkroniserte

Synkroniserte is the past tense form of the Norwegian verb synkronisere, meaning that two or more things were brought into synchronization. It is used in active voice to describe an action completed in the past. In Norwegian Bokmål, the corresponding past participle is synkronisert; Danish and Swedish have cognate forms such as synkroniserade or synkroniseret, with minor spelling differences. The word derives from the prefix syn- meaning together and chronos meaning time, reflecting the concept of aligning timing.

Usage and scope: Synkroniserte describes actions that align timing or coordination of devices, data, processes, or events. Common domains include computing (synchronizing files across devices or servers), clock synchronization in networks, multimedia (ensuring audio and video timing), manufacturing (coordinated control of machinery), and biology (synchronization of rhythms).

Examples: Vi synkroniserte filene mellom mobilen og datamaskinen. Systemet synkroniserte tidsstemplene for alle loggfiler. Etter oppdateringen synkroniserte systemet klokkene. Note that in Norwegian, the past participle used in passive constructions is typically synkronisert, while synkroniserte is common for straightforward past-tense statements in active voice.
