Aktualizují

Aktualizují is a present tense verb form used in Czech, Polish, and related Slavic languages. It is the 3rd person plural form of the verb aktualizovat (Czech) or aktualizować (Polish), and it means “they update” or “they refresh.” The form is employed when the subject is plural and the action occurs in the present.

Etymology and morphology: The root aktual- comes from the idea of being current or up to date, derived from Latin actualis through the historical development of Slavic languages. In both Czech and Polish, the infinitive forms are built with the common -ovat suffix, producing a present tense that, for 3rd person plural, ends in -ují (Czech) or -ują (Polish). The exact spelling of aktualizují/aktualizują is the same in both languages, though pronunciation differs.

Usage: In computing and information contexts, aktualizují is frequently used to describe updating software, data, or systems—for example, “Oni aktualizují software” (they update the software) or “aktualizují databázové záznamy.” In media or communication contexts, it can mean providing or applying updates to information. The related noun forms are aktualizace (Czech) and aktualizacja (Polish), while the imperative forms include aktualizuj (singular) and aktualizujte (plural or formal).

Examples: Czech: Oni aktualizují software. Polish: Oni aktualizują oprogramowanie. Both sentences convey that a plural subject is performing update actions in the present.
