Återrapporterade

Återrapporterade is a Swedish verb form derived from återrapportera, meaning to report back or to provide a follow-up report to someone who requested information. In everyday use, återrapporterade functions as the past tense form of återrapportera, indicating that the reporting back has taken place. It can also serve as a past participle used adjectivally to describe information, findings, or results that have been reported back.

Etymology and morphology: the word combines åter- (again/back) with rapportera (to report). The infinitive is återrapportera; the present tense is återrapporterar; the past tense is återrapporterade; the supine (used with have/had) is återrapporterat. The form återrapporterade is therefore the standard simple past tense and may modify nouns in gender-neutral or plural contexts.

Usage: återrapporterade is common in professional, academic, and administrative contexts. Examples include corporate governance and project management, where teams or individuals must report progress or outcomes to a supervisor or committee. In research or auditing, findings that have been communicated back to stakeholders are described as återrapporterade. The term emphasizes the action of returning information to a prior recipient rather than presenting new or original results.

See also: återrapportering (the act of reporting back), rapportera (to report), redovisa (to account for or present), uppföljning (follow-up).

Notes: while återrapportera generally conveys the act of reporting back, the exact meaning can depend on the surrounding context and may be replaced by synonymous phrases such as rapportera tillbaka or rapportera i uppföljningen.
