óuppfærðum

Óuppfærðum is an Icelandic term and adjective form meaning “not updated” or “outdated.” It is used to describe information, software, documents, or data that have not been refreshed to reflect newer changes. The word is formed from the prefix ó- (negation) attached to uppfæra (to update) and appears in inflected forms; óuppfærðum is the dative plural form of the adjective, so it is used with plural nouns in the dative case, for example in phrases like "óuppfærðum gögnum" or "óuppfærðum útgáfum."

In practical use, óuppfærðum commonly appears in technical and administrative contexts. It signals that a resource has not been brought up to date, which may have implications for accuracy, compatibility, or reliability. The term is often found in software release notes, data assessments, documentation, and quality-control remarks to indicate obsolescence or the need for updating.

Etymology and form: the base verb uppfæra means to update, while ó- prefixes it to convey negation, yielding a meaning of not updated. Icelandic adjectives agree with their nouns in gender, number, and case, so the form óuppfærðum is one inflected variant used with plural nouns in the dative case.
