adj. preserved or stored in a permanent form (e.g., audio, video, or written)
vt. past tense and past participle of "record" (to capture or document information)
The word "recorded" traces back to Latin "recordari" (to remember), combining "re-" (again) and "cor" (heart/mind). In medieval Latin, "recordare" evolved into Old French "recorder," meaning "to recount or preserve knowledge." The suffix "-ed" marks it as a past action. The modern sense of "capturing sound or data" emerged with technological advancements in the 19th century.
