  • Means approved
  • Used for norms
  • Common in academic writing
  • Opposite of rejected

When we say something is accepted, we mean it has passed the test of approval. It is the opposite of something that is rejected or controversial. Think of it as a stamp of approval from a group of people.

You will often see this word used in social contexts, like being accepted into a club, or in intellectual contexts, like an accepted scientific theory. It implies a sense of belonging or standard agreement.

The word accepted comes from the Latin word acceptare, which means 'to take to oneself' or 'receive willingly.' It evolved through Old French before settling into English in the 15th century.

Historically, it was used in legal and mercantile settings to denote the formal receipt of goods or payments. Over time, the meaning expanded to include social and abstract concepts, such as accepting an idea or a person's behavior.

You use accepted when you want to describe a norm or a status. It works well with nouns like standard, practice, or theory.

In formal writing, it is used to denote compliance with rules. In casual conversation, we might say 'it's widely accepted' to mean that most people don't find a certain behavior strange or wrong.

1. Accepted wisdom: Ideas that most people believe are true. 2. Generally accepted: Something that is widely recognized. 3. Accepted practice: The standard way of doing things. 4. Widely accepted: Agreed upon by many. 5. Accepted as fact: Believed without question.

Accepted functions primarily as an adjective or the past participle of the verb 'accept.' It is pronounced /əkˈseptɪd/ in both British and American English, with the stress on the second syllable.

It rhymes with words like excepted, dejected, and connected. Remember that the 'ed' ending is pronounced as a separate syllable because the root word ends in a 't' sound.
