Aplikues

Aplikues is an Albanian noun that denotes an applicant, a person who submits an application for a job, admission to a program, a visa, a grant, or another formal process. The term is commonly used in administrative, educational, and recruitment contexts to reference individuals who seek consideration or approval through an application.

Grammatical forms and origin: the masculine form is aplikuesi, the feminine form aplikuesja, and the plural forms are aplikuesit (masculine/mixed) and aplikueset (feminine). The word derives from the verb aplikoj (to apply) and the related noun aplikim (the act of applying), with the agent suffix -ues to indicate a person who performs the action.

Usage and context: an aplikues typically provides required documents such as a CV, motivation letter, and supporting certificates. The term emphasizes the act of applying rather than the outcome or status of being accepted. In sentences, one might encounter: “Aplikuesi duhet të dorëzojë formularin” or “Lista e aplikuesve për pozicionin është publikuar.” In many contexts, related terms like kandidat or aplikant may be used to describe a person competing for a position, though aplikues specifically refers to the act of submitting an application.

Software distinction: in Albanian, the word for software application is aplikacion or program, not aplikues. Aplikues refers to the person submitting an application, whereas aplikacion denotes the software product or tool being applied to use.
