APPROVED Meaning and Definition

1. "Approved" is an adjective that describes something that has been officially accepted, authorized, or found acceptable by someone in a position of authority or by a recognized governing body. It implies that the item, action, or process in question has met the established criteria, standards, or requirements, and has been given the necessary endorsement or validation.

It signifies that the person or entity responsible for determining what is acceptable, appropriate, or lawful in a particular context has reviewed and deemed the item or action to be satisfactory, suitable, or compliant.

It ensures that a decision regarding its acceptance or rejection has been made following a fair and impartial evaluation process.

   Overall, "approved" refers to the official validation or endorsement granted to an object, action, or process by the appropriate authority or governing body, indicating that it has met the required standards, criteria, or expectations.

Etymology of APPROVED

The word "approved" has its etymology derived from the Latin word "approbare", which is a combination of "ad" (meaning "to" or "toward") and "probare" (meaning "to prove" or "to test"). Over time, this evolved into the Old French word "aprover", which eventually entered Middle English as "approve" in the late 13th century.
