errored
Rfv-sense: The closest I can think of this term is in "errored player" or "errored out", which is, it seems to me, adverbial, and rare. - Amgine/talk 18:34, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
 * So common in telecommunications that I didn't bother with citations, but I'm sure I can find them, especially in technical manuals. I've put some examples of usage under error as a verb.  These are not adjectival, but you might like to check to see whether they are convincing.  Would you prefer citations?  I see some usage as adjectival, especially "errored seconds", "errored blocks" etc., but I'm not an expert in parts of speech.   D b f  i  r  s   19:18, 9 August 2008 (UTC)


 * b.g.c. gives a lot of hits for "errored bits", "errored second(s)", "errored block(s)", "errored frame(s)", "errorer cell(s)", etc. in the context of digital telecommunications. The evidence I can find is supportive that this is a true adjective. It is graded (<10 times) (very, too, highly), though not often. It does appear as a predicate. OTOH, it very rarely forms a comparative (less, more). DCDuring TALK 19:46, 9 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I've provided three citations from different fields. According to b.g.c. the first cited book also contains "most errored" (proving the adjectival use?), but it won't give me the quote so I can't check.  There is also "the least-errored neural network topological structure and the optimum rheology parameters were obtained using a genetic algorithm" which I will add to the citations.

 * (later) Apologies for prematurely removing the tag. Didn't intend to shortcut due process.    D b f  i  r  s   22:36, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

I work in IT industry and we use the word errored out at many places " The file has errored out" "The coding has errored"
