óuppfærður

The Icelandic word "óuppfærður" translates to "unupdated" or "outdated" in English. It is an adjective formed by combining the prefix "ó-" (meaning "un-" or "not") with the past participle of the verb "uppfæra," which means "to update." Therefore, "óuppfærður" literally means "not updated."

This term is commonly used in various contexts, particularly concerning technology and information. For example, a computer program or software might be described as "óuppfærður" if it has not received the latest updates or patches. This can imply that it may be less secure, less efficient, or lacking new features. Similarly, a website, database, or even a report can be considered "óuppfærður" if its content is no longer current or relevant.

The state of being "óuppfærður" often carries negative connotations, suggesting a lack of maintenance or a failure to keep pace with progress. In everyday conversation, it can be used to describe anything from an old piece of information to a person's knowledge on a particular subject if it hasn't been refreshed. The opposite of "óuppfærður" is "uppfærður," meaning "updated."
