imported
From another country
Imported describes goods or materials brought in from another country: imported wine, imported cars, imported olive oil.
The word often implies quality or exoticism—something worth the trouble of shipping from abroad.
In computing, imported refers to data or files brought into a program from an external source.
To import is to bring in; imported is what results.
