Tradueixen

Tradueixen is the third-person plural present indicative form of the Catalan verb traduir, meaning "they translate." The verb traduir denotes converting text or speech from one language into another and can also be used in a broader sense of rendering meaning. Traduitar comes from Latin traducere, and traduir is a core Catalan verb used in writing, publishing, and language services.

In the present tense, the key forms of traduir are: jo tradueixo, tu tradueixes, ell tradueix, nosaltres traduïm, vosaltres traduïu, ells tradueixen. The form tradueixen specifically marks actions performed by multiple subjects in the present moment. The verb features typical -uir conjugation patterns found in several Catalan verbs, including occasional orthographic adjustments such as diaeresis in some other forms (for example, traduïm, traduïu).

Usage and context: traduir is employed for translating texts, articles, subtitled media, software localizations, and spoken interpretation. It is common in education, journalism, publishing, and professional translation settings. When referring to who performs the action, the subject must be plural to use tradueixen, as in "Ells tradueixen textos del castellà al català" or "Aquest equip tradueixen fitxers tècnics." The term also appears in discussions of language policy, localization, and cross-language communication.
