uendret

Uendret is a Norwegian adjective meaning unchanged or not altered. It is used to describe something that has not undergone changes relative to a specified reference point, such as a prior period, version, or condition. The word is formed by adding the negation prefix u- to endret, the past participle of endre (to change).

Etymology and form: uendret combines the negative prefix u- with endret, yielding a term that conveys the absence of change. It functions as an adjective and can describe a wide range of subjects, including prices, figures, documents, or states of affairs.

Usage: In finance and statistics, uendret is common to indicate no change from a previous period. Examples include: "Prisen er uendret fra forrige måned" and "Omsetningen er uendret i forhold til siste kvartal." In documentation and publishing, it can describe the status of content or revisions, such as "Dokumentet er uendret siden siste revisjon" or "Tilstanden forblir uendret." The term is versatile and appears in both formal texts and everyday language.

Related terms and variants: The related verb is endre (to change), with endret as the past participle meaning changed. Uendret is the corresponding negative form used attributively or predicatively. In Norwegian as in other Scandinavian languages, similar constructions exist to express lack of change, though uendret remains the standard Norwegian form.
