append
add to the end / attach / supplement
Transitive Verb
past: appendedpp: appendeding: appending
This term describes the act of attaching additional material to the end of a primary body of work. It carries a connotation of supplementation rather than integration, implying that the added content is an auxiliary addition that does not alter the original core text but extends it. In technical and computing contexts, the word specifically denotes a non-destructive operation where data is placed at the very end of a sequence or file. This distinguishes it from inserting or prepending, which would place data at the beginning or within the existing structure.
