daugiskaitin

Daugiskaitin is a Lithuanian word that translates to "plural" or "in plural form." It is a grammatical term used to describe the form of a noun, pronoun, adjective, or verb that indicates more than one entity. In Lithuanian grammar, like many other languages, words change their form to agree with the number of the subject or object they refer to.

The formation of the plural in Lithuanian can involve various changes to the stem of the word, often through suffixes. For example, masculine nouns might have different plural endings than feminine nouns. Adjectives and pronouns also decline to agree in number, gender, and case with the nouns they modify. Verb conjugation also includes plural forms, used when the subject is plural. Understanding daugiskaitin is crucial for constructing grammatically correct sentences in Lithuanian, ensuring proper agreement between different parts of speech. The concept of plurality is a fundamental aspect of Lithuanian morphology and syntax.
