Sjellni

Sjellni is an Albanian verb form derived from the verb sjell, meaning to bring. It functions as the second-person plural imperative, used to command a group of people to perform the action of bringing something. The form is created by adding the imperative suffix -ni to the present stem sjell, yielding sjellni. The singular imperative for a single person is sjell.

In standard Albanian, the verb follows regular conjugation patterns for present, past, and other tenses, with personal forms such as unë sjell (I bring), ti sjell (you bring), ai/ajo sjell (he/she brings). Sjellni is used with a direct object: for example, Sjellni librat këtu means “Bring the books here.” The form is common in everyday speech, education, and instruction, and is understood across Albanian-speaking regions in Albania, Kosovo, North Macedonia, and the diaspora.

Etymology and related forms: Sjellni is built from the root sjell meaning “to bring,” with the plural imperative suffix -ni. Related forms include sjell (present indicative and singular imperative) and other mood or tense variants formed by standard Albanian verb conjugation.

Usage notes: As a command directed at multiple people, sjellni appears in contexts such as instructions, requests in groups, or workplace and classroom settings. It can be combined with pronouns or clitics to specify what should be brought, and may appear in formal or informal registers depending on tone and context.
