Urdhëroj

Urdhëroj is an Albanian verb meaning to issue an order or to command. It denotes directing someone to perform a task or to comply with a directive, typically by a person in a position of authority. The action is transitive and can take a direct object or a subordinate clause specifying what is to be done.

Etymology and related forms: The verb is derived from the noun urdhër, meaning an order or directive. It is formed with the common Albanian verb suffix -oj, following regular patterns for -oj verbs. The noun urdhër is widely used in legal, administrative, and organizational language. Related derivatives include urdhërues (one who issues orders) and urdhëror (relating to orders or directives).

Usage: Urdhëroj is used in formal registers—law, administration, military, and business—where clear directives are issued. It is transitive and typically requires specifying what should be done, either with a clause or with a direct object referring to the instruction. In everyday speech it can still appear when someone in authority gives instructions or commands.

Conjugation: Urdhëroj follows a regular -oj verb pattern in Albanian. In the present tense the forms are, for example: unë urdhëroj, ti urdhëron, ai/ajo urdhëron, ne urdhërojmë, ju urdhëroni, ata urdhërojnë. The past and future tenses are formed in line with standard Albanian -oj verb conjugations, e.g., ai urdhëroi (past), unë do të urdhëroj (future).
