introduzi

Introduzi is the first-person singular preterite indicative form of the Portuguese verb introduzir. It translates to "I introduced" in English and denotes a completed action in the past.

The verb introduzir comes from the Latin introducere, formed from in- (into) and ducere (to lead). In Portuguese, introduzir is used to mean to present or to bring into, to insert, or to present a topic, idea, or object to others. The exact sense depends on context: it can refer to presenting a topic in a discussion, introducing a person to a group, or inserting something into a system or process.

Common uses include presenting information or objects, and introducing people in a social or professional setting. Examples: Eu introduzi o tema na reunião. Eu introduzi os dados no sistema. In more formal or technical writing, the verb can also mean to place something into a larger framework or to initiate a procedure.

Conjugation highlights (present tense and past simple): present — eu introduzo, tu introduzes, ele introduz, nós introduzimos, vós introduzis, eles introduzem; preterite — eu introduzi, tu introduziste, ele introduziu, nós introduzimos, vós introduzistes, eles introduziram. The pronunciation centers on the -duz- stem in the present form and -zu- in the preterite, with mild shifts in some dialects.
