~"aufgenommen"?

past tense of aufnehmen. The 'auf' is always on the front and you
acquire a 'ge' when it's past tense, and it's one of the verbs I
spent
hours learning 3 or so years ago. Weird thing is, it looks like it
ought to be translated as to take out! But it's the opposite...

Not really. "Aus is "out". "Auf" is "up", hence "taken up" which
might be translated loosely as "received"
