Spoji

Spoji is a form of the verb spojiti in several South Slavic languages, notably Croatian, Serbian, Bosnian, and Montenegrin. It functions as an imperative meaning “connect” or “join” and is commonly used in instructional or procedural contexts to direct someone to connect two or more elements, such as cables, devices, or components. In everyday language it can also appear as a general exhortation to link things or to bring parts together.

Etymology and grammar origins are tied to the noun spoj, meaning a connection or junction, from which the verb spojiti is derived. The imperative form spoji is used for singular, informal instruction, while spojite is used for plural or formal address. The related noun spoj means a connection, junction, or link, and related terms include spojnik (connector or conjunction) and spojanje or spajanje, both referring to the act or process of joining.

Usage examples are common in technical manuals, electronics, networking, and DIY contexts. Examples include spoji kabl s uređajem, or spoji dva dijela prije zavarivanja. In computing or networking, one might encounter phrases that translate to “connect to the network” or “connect the devices.”

See also: spoj (connection), spojiti (to connect), spajanje (joining), spojnik (connector or conjunction). While spoji is primarily a linguistic term, its appearance in manuals and interfaces can help users recognize it as an instruction to establish a link or partnership between elements.
