Usage Note

Anotado is the past participle of anotar used as an adjective. It most commonly means 'written down' or 'annotated' (texto anotado), but in Latin American Spanish sports commentary anotar means to score, so anotado can describe a run or point that has been scored. In Spain, 'to score' is typically marcar, so the sporting sense of anotado signals a Latin American register.

Examples

"El punto fue anotado en el marcador."

Natural Translation
