Learn English – Can you use word “translated” as adjective

adjectivesword-usage

I am wondering if word translated can be used as adjective in the following example.

I have a translated document.

For me this sounds completely fine, but dictionaries do not provide word translated as adjective like here and here.

Translate is a verb. In your example, it is acting as an adjective. For example:

"He translated the book." - verb
"This is the translated edition." - adjective
