udviklede

Udviklede is the simple past tense form of the Danish verb udvikle, meaning to develop or to evolve. It is a regular, weak verb that forms the past tense by adding -ede to the stem; the present tense is udvikler, and the past participle is udviklet. The present participle is udviklende, used in forming continuous aspects.

Usage and examples: Udviklede is used to describe actions completed in the past and typically takes a direct object. For example: "Virksomheden udviklede en ny app" (The company developed a new app). It can also appear in narrative past descriptions, such as "Hun udviklede projektet over tre måneder" (She developed the project over three months).

Difference from related forms: Udviklede is the simple past form. The present perfect is formed with har udviklet (have developed), as in "virksomheden har udviklet en ny teknologi." The past participle udviklet is used with have or as an adjective, e.g., "udviklet teknologi" (developed technology).

Related terms: The noun udvikling denotes development, while udvikler can mean developer or one who develops. The verb is transitive and commonly used across contexts such as business, technology, education, and science to describe processes of making something more advanced or refined.

Notes: Udviklede functions primarily as a narrative past tense marker in Danish and should be distinguished from the past participle udviklet, which is used in perfect tenses or as an attributive adjective.
