compleixen

Compleixen is the third-person plural present indicative form of the Catalan verb compleir, meaning to fulfill, to comply with, or to meet (such as requirements or expectations). It is used to refer to a group performing the action of fulfilling or complying in the present tense.

Etymology and related forms: The verb compleir derives from Latin completare or complere, meaning to fill up or to fulfill. In Catalan, the infinitive is compleir, and the present tense forms follow regular -ir verb patterns with a distinctive stem: jo compleixo, tu compleixes, ell compleix, nosaltres compleim, vosaltres compleiu, ells compleixen. Compleixen appears specifically as the 3rd person plural present.

Usage: Compleixen is common in formal and administrative contexts, as well as in everyday language when describing groups or institutions that meet standards, laws, or criteria. It can also be used more broadly to indicate that people or organizations fulfill promises, duties, or obligations. Example sentences include: Els proveïdors compleixen els requisits; Aquestes empreses compleixen la normativa vigent. In subordinate clauses requiring the subjunctive, other forms such as compleixin may appear, depending on sentence structure.

Regional presence: Compleir and its forms, including compleixen, are standard across Catalan-speaking regions, including Catalonia, the Valencian Community, and the Balearic Islands. The usage is consistent in written and formal spoken Catalan, though registers and phrasing may vary with regional norms.
