Zaokrúhľujú is a Slovak verb that translates to "they are rounding" or "they round" in English. It refers to the act of approximating a number to a certain degree of precision.

In practical applications, zaokrúhľujú might be used when discussing currency, measurements, or statistical data. For example, economic reports might round figures to the nearest million.

The verb form "zaokrúhľujú" is the third-person plural present tense of the verb "zaokrúhliť" (to round). It implies that multiple subjects are performing the action of rounding. This could refer to a group of people, multiple calculations, or even automated processes.
