Dalykuose

Dalykuose is a Lithuanian word form used to indicate location or context related to parts, sections, or topics within a larger whole. It is typically understood as the locative plural form of the noun dalykas (matter, subject, issue) or, in some contexts, of dalis (part). In practice, dalykuose is used in formal or academic prose to refer to subdivisions of a document, study, or system.

Etymology and morphology:

The base form dalyk- or dalis combines with the plural locative ending to yield dalykuose, signaling “in the parts/sections.” The exact interpretation depends on the governing noun and the surrounding text.

Usage:

- Šio teksto dalykuose aptariami pagrindiniai klausimai. (In the sections of this text, the main questions are discussed.)

- Projekto dalykuose aprašomi atskiri uždaviniai. (In the parts of the project, the individual tasks are described.)

Notes:

- Dalikuose is not used to denote fractions in a mathematical sense; for fractions, other terms such as dalis or dalys viso are used.

- The form is common in descriptive, analytical, and scholarly writing when delineating subdivisions.
