Zahtijevajui

Zahtijevajui is not a standard or recognized form in widely used South Slavic languages such as Croatian, Serbian, or Bosnian. It does not appear in authoritative dictionaries and is generally considered a typographical error, mis-transcription, or a misspelling of another form derived from the verb zahtijevati, which means to demand or to require.

The most common related forms are those with the same root and different endings. Zahtijevaju denotes the present tense, third-person plural: they demand. Zahtijevati is the infinitive: to demand or to require. The present active participle is zahtijevajući, meaning demanding. The past active participle is zahtijevavši, meaning having demanded. These forms are regularly used in standard Croatian, Serbian, and Bosnian rather than the nonstandard ای variant zatijevajui.

Usage guidance: when encountering the sequence zahtijevajui in text, it is prudent to interpret it as a likely error and replace it with the appropriate standard form based on context. If the intended meaning is “they demand,” use zahtijevaju. If the intended meaning is “demanding” as an attributive or adverbial participle, use zahtijevajući. If the intended meaning is “having demanded,” use zahtijevavši.

In sum, zahtijevajui is not a recognized lexical item and should be corrected to a standard form of zahtijevati or its inflected variants according to the sentence’s grammar and meaning.
