Gravajn

Gravajn is the accusative plural form of the Esperanto adjective grava, which means important or serious. It is used to modify a plural noun when the noun is in the accusative case. For example, gravajn aferojn means “important matters” as the direct object. By contrast, the nominative plural form is gravaj aferoj, meaning “important matters” as the subject or predicate noun.

In Esperanto grammar, adjectives do not distinguish gender and agree with the noun in number and case. The base form grava becomes gravaj in the nominative plural, and gravajn in the accusative plural. The noun also takes the accusative -n suffix, as in aferojn. The standard word order places the adjective before the noun: gravajn aferojn.

Gravajn appears in formal and general Esperanto prose whenever a speaker refers to multiple important matters or serious items that function as the object of a verb or a preposition. It is a routine inflected form, not a separate dictionary entry, reflecting Esperanto’s regular adjective agreement system.
