aforementioned

English

Etymology

From afore- +‎ mentioned.

Pronunciation

(Received Pronunciation) IPA^(key): /əˈfɔːˌmɛn.ʃənd/
(US) IPA^(key): /əˈfɔɹˌmɛn.ʃənd/, (nonstandard) /ˈæfɚˌmɛn.ʃənd/

Adjective

aforementioned (not comparable)

Previously mentioned.
The PA system broadcast a long list of names in the morning, but it wasn't until later that they requested the aforementioned students report to the health clinic.

Usage notes

When it modifies a noun phrase, it is generally preceded by the definite article the, and the combination functions as a determiner rather than a simple adjective. It can also occur before a cardinal as in the aforementioned two papers instead of the two aforementioned papers, though the latter is also acceptable.
