乗算された
解説 Definition
multiplied は multiply（掛ける、増える）の過去形・過去分詞で、形容詞としては「乗算された」という意味です。数学で数値が掛け合わされた状態を表すほか、数や量が増えた状態にも使われます。
As an adjective, multiplied describes a number, value, or quantity that has been combined with another by multiplication. It can also describe something whose amount or number has been increased many times.
覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
原形は multiply「掛ける・増やす」。語末の子音字＋y は、過去形・過去分詞で y を i に替えて -ed を付け、multiplied となります。発音は /ˈmʌltɪplaɪd/ で、語尾は /d/。「a multiplied value」「be multiplied by a rate」の形で、計算後の値や何倍にもなった量を思い浮かべましょう。
Connect multiplied directly with the base verb multiply. Because multiply ends in a consonant plus y, the y changes to i before -ed: multiply becomes multiplied. The ending is pronounced /d/, giving /ˈmʌltɪplaɪd/. Picture a spreadsheet in which a price is multiplied by a tax rate and the multiplied value appears in the final column. Common patterns include “a multiplied value,” “multiplied results,” and “be multiplied by.” The form may also describe a number or quantity that has increased greatly.

multiplied の語源・成り立ち Etymology
multiplied は multiply の過去分詞で、古フランス語を経てラテン語 multiplicare に由来します。multi-「多く」+ -plic- / -plex「折り重なる」が核なので、「数が何重にも増えた」が『乗算された』の感覚です。関連語は multiple, multiplicity。
Multiplied is the past-tense and past-participle form of multiply, formed by changing final y to i and adding -ed. Multiply entered English through Old French from Latin multiplicare, “to multiply.” Its deeper structure is connected with Latin multus, “many,” and the element seen in words referring to folds or layers. The historical image is therefore of making something manyfold, which developed naturally into mathematical multiplication and numerical increase.
