Partopreni

Partopreni is a verb in Esperanto meaning to participate or to take part in an event, activity, discussion, or process. It is used for both voluntary and organized participation and can describe attending meetings, joining a project, or contributing to a activity.

In Esperanto, partopreni is a regular verb following the standard conjugation pattern. Infinitive: partopreni. Present tense: partoprenas (he/she/it participates). Past tense: partoprenis (participated). Future tense: partoprenos (will participate). Conditional: partoprenus (would participate). Imperative: partoprenu (participate!). The language uses the accusative case marked by the suffix -n to indicate direct objects, so you typically say, for example, Mi partoprenas la kongreson (I participate in the congress). Partopreno forms the noun partopreno, meaning participation, and the related adjective partoprena.

Active and passive constructions are both possible. The passive voice can be formed with esti plus the past participle: la kongreso estas partoprenita de multaj partoprenantoj (the congress is participated in by many attendees). Esperanto also uses participles for additional nuance: partoprenanta (participating), partopreninta (having participated), partoprenonta (going to participate).

Common uses include referring to attendance at conferences, seminars, or cultural events, as well as involvement in a project or discussion. Partopreni is a versatile verb in both formal and informal Esperanto, widely understood across different contexts. Related terms include la partopreno (the participation) and partopreni en (to participate in) when specifying the event or activity.
