ustaljenim

Ustaljenim is a Bosnian and Croatian word that translates to "established," "settled," or "customary" in English. It is an adjective derived from the verb "ustati," which means "to rise" or "to stand up." However, in the context of "ustaljenim," the meaning shifts to something that has become fixed, regular, or deeply ingrained through repeated practice or occurrence.

The term can be used in various contexts. For instance, one might refer to "ustaljenim redom" (established order) to describe a long-standing system or tradition. Similarly, "ustaljenim običajima" refers to customary practices or traditions that have been passed down through generations. In a more personal sense, it can describe a "ustaljenim načinom života" (established way of life), indicating a routine or lifestyle that a person has become accustomed to. The word implies a sense of stability and predictability, suggesting that something is no longer new or uncertain but has found its place and is expected to continue. It denotes a state of being settled, either socially, culturally, or personally, often implying a positive attribute of reliability and consistency.
