Verhuist

Verhuist is a present-tense form of the Dutch verb verhuizen, which means to move one’s residence or relocate. It is used to describe the act of changing where someone lives, whether within the same city or to another country. The root verb verhuizen combines the prefix ver- with huizen (houses), conveying a sense of moving to a different home.

In Dutch, the present tense forms of verhuizen are: ik verhuis; jij verhuist; hij/zij/het verhuist; wij verhuizen; jullie verhuizen; zij verhuizen. The form verhuist is the present-tense ending for the second person singular informal subject jij and also for the third person singular subjects hij/zij/het. The past participle is verhuisd, and the present perfect is formed with zijn, as in Wij zijn verhuisd.

Common usage includes statements about ongoing or planned relocations. For example: “Jij verhuist volgende maand.” (You are moving next month.) “Zij verhuist naar Amsterdam.” (She is moving to Amsterdam.) “Wij verhuizen dit jaar naar Utrecht.” (We are moving to Utrecht this year.)

Related terms include verhuizen (the base verb), verhuizing (the noun for a move or relocation), verhuisdoos (moving box), and verhuisbedrijf (moving company). Verhuist as a standalone form is primarily a grammatical inflection rather than a standalone lexical entry; it appears in sentences referencing someone moving.
