Usage Note
Simulado functions as the past participle of simular and as a standalone adjective. It is widely used in military and training contexts: ejercicio simulado (simulated exercise) or emergencia simulada. When describing a person feigning emotion, fingido is a closer synonym with a stronger connotation of deliberate deception.
