usmjerene

Usmjerene is the feminine plural form of the adjective participle derived from the verb usmjeriti, which means to direct, aim, or channel. In Croatian, Bosnian and Serbian, it describes nouns that have been directed toward a specific goal, audience, or outcome. The term conveys a sense of deliberate tailoring and is commonly translated as "targeted" or "directed." Grammatical agreement is with feminine plural nouns; other forms of the same paradigm include usmjereni (masculine plural), usmjerena (feminine singular), and usmjereno (neuter singular).

Usmjerene is used across policy, business and media to express intentional tailoring or focusing. Common collocations include usmjerene poruke (targeted messages), usmjerene mjere (targeted measures), usmjerene investicije (directed investments) and usmjerene politike (targeted policies). The word signals specificity and strategic aim, rather than broad or generic application.

Notes on usage and context: it is not a proper noun or a named entity. The term appears in contexts involving planning, communication, or resource allocation, and can be combined with other modifiers to indicate the degree of targeting (for example, highly usmjerene campaigns). It is widely understood in South Slavic language varieties with similar semantics.
