dokumentojn

Dokumentojn is the accusative plural form of the Esperanto noun dokumento, meaning documents or papers. It denotes multiple documents that are being acted upon by a verb, or that are the object of a preposition requiring the accusative case. It is used when the focus is on the documents themselves as objects in a sentence.

Morphology: The base form is dokumento (document). The plural nominative is dokumentoj, while the accusative plural is dokumentojn. The definite article la can precede the noun in its accusative form: la dokumentojn. The accusative ending -n attaches to the noun, independent of the article. In sentences, the direct object is typically marked with -n, though word order remains relatively flexible in Esperanto.

Usage: Dokumentojn refers to several documents in actions such as reading, examining, sending, or presenting. Examples: "Mi legas dokumentojn." (I am reading documents.) "La advokato prezentis la dokumentojn al la tribunalo." (The lawyer presented the documents to the court.) The term is common in legal, administrative, and bureaucratic contexts, but is understood in general speech as well. In many contexts, the documents may be digital or physical, with the form of the word remaining the same.

Notes: For the singular object, use dokumenton; for the nominative plural, dokumentoj. While dokumentojn is a precise grammatical form, it is often clear from context whether one speaks of documents in general or a specific set of documents.
