vermerkter

Vermerkter is a German attributive adjective formed from the verb vermerken, which means to note, record, or annotate. The base noun Vermerk refers to a note, remark, annotation, or memorandum. As an adjective, vermerkter describes a noun as having a note attached or being annotated. The ending of the adjective changes with the article and the gender/number of the noun, for example: ein vermerkter Eintrag (a noted entry), der vermerkte Eintrag (the noted entry), die vermerkten Einträge (the noted entries).

In practice, vermerkter appears mainly in formal, archival, administrative, or bibliographic contexts. It is used to indicate that a document, entry, or item carries an added remark, annotation, or metadata. This term is common in German-language catalogs, archival descriptions, library records, legal filings, and other settings where records are augmented with notes for clarity or provenance.

The term is closely related to Vermerk (note or annotation) and to synonyms such as Anmerkung or Notiz. While Vermerk emphasizes an added note within a record, Vermerkter specifically identifies the item as bearing that note. In English, phrases conveying the sense include “noted,” “annotated,” or “with a note.” The form vertr emerges in typical German grammar as the attributive adjective describing masculine singular nouns on indefinite or zero articles, with der or die triggering other endings.
