Veidoju

Veidoju is a Latvian verb form meaning "I create" or "I am creating." It is the first-person singular present tense of veidot, the verb meaning to create, form, or shape. The form is used to express that the speaker is actively performing a creation or shaping action. In standard present tense conjugation: es veidoju; tu veidoji; viņš/viņa veido; mēs veidojam; jūs veidojat; viņi veido. The verb is transitive and typically takes a direct object, for example "Es veidoju jaunu plānu" (I am making a new plan) or "Es veidoju krāsu paleti" (I am creating a color palette). It can also be used metaphorically, such as forming opinions, policies, or careers (es veidoju savu karjeru).

The term is common in everyday Latvian speech and in written prose about creative work, design, crafts, software development, and organizational processes. The present tense emphasizes ongoing action rather than a finished product, and the form reflects the speaker’s active involvement in shaping something new. Veidoju can appear in a variety of contexts, from artistic creation to planning and development tasks, illustrating how language encodes agency and process in creation.
