Pateikimui

Pateikimui is a Lithuanian noun form that means “for submission” or “to be submitted.” It is the dative singular of the noun pateikimas, which denotes the act of presenting or submitting something. The word is built from the verb pateikti (to present or submit) with the noun-forming suffix -imas and the dative ending -ui.

Usage and context: Pateikimui appears mainly in formal administrative and legal language. It marks the recipient or the purpose of a submission and is commonly found in templates, instructions, and official documents. For example, the phrase dokumentai skirti pateikimui konkursui means “documents intended for submission to the competition.” The form can also appear in longer expressions describing the destination of documents or requests, such as phrases indicating that something is prepared for submission to a specific authority.

Notes: In everyday speech, speakers more often use paraphrases such as dokumentai, kuriuos reikia pateikti, or other constructions that avoid the dative form. Pateikimui thus tends to be encountered in bureaucratic or formal writing rather than in casual conversation.
