Überwiesenen

Überwiesenen is not a standalone entry in standard German dictionaries, but it appears as the inflected form of the verb überweisen (to transfer money). In practice, überwiesenen functions as an attributive participial adjective in compounds or phrases, and in plural it takes the ending appropriate to definite articles (for example: die überwiesenen Beträge or den überwiesenen Beträgen). The form can also occur as a capitalization in rare noun uses such as Die Überwiesenen, where it would refer to the recipients of transfers, but this is uncommon in formal writing.

In financial and accounting language, überwiesen is more commonly encountered as part of phrases describing transferred funds. Typical usages include überwiesene Beträge (transferred sums) and überwiesene Zahlungen (transferred payments). For clear, unambiguous terminology, German texts often prefer Überweisung (the transfer) and Zahlungsempfänger or Empfänger einer Überweisung (the recipient of a transfer) rather than relying on the participial form as a stand-alone noun.

Linguistic notes:

- The base verb is überweisen; the past participle is überwiesen, and the attributive form for plural feminine/neuter nouns is überwiesenen (die überwiesenen Beträge; den überwiesenen Beträgen).

- The form überwiesenen should be distinguished from Überweisungen (the noun for the act of transferring money) and von der Arbeit oder dem Empfänger, je nach Kontext.

- In official documents, more specific terms such as Zahlungsempfänger, Empfänger einer Überweisung oder Kontoempfänger werden bevorzugt.
