istruiti

Istruiti is commonly written as instruiți in standard Romanian, and is a form of the verb a instrui, meaning to instruct or to train. It specifically refers to addressing multiple people, expressing the action in the second-person plural present tense or as the imperative.

Etymology and form: The verb a instrui derives from the Latin instruere, literally “to set up, to equip,” and by extension “to instruct.” In Romanian, the present tense forms include eu instruiesc, tu instruiești, el instruiește, noi instruim, voi instruiți, ei instruiesc. The word istruiti (non-diacritic variant istruiți) represents the same form without diacritics. The past participle is instruit (masculine singular), used with auxiliary verbs to form perfect tenses (am instruit = I instructed).

Usage: Istruiti is used in educational, managerial, and organizational contexts to describe the act of teaching or training a group. It appears in sentences such as “Voi instruiți echipa în noile proceduri” (You train the team in the new procedures) or as a command directed at several people, e.g., “Instruiți-i pe noii angajați.” The term is neutral and common in professional Romanian, academic writing, and instructional material.

Note: The diacritic form instruiți is the standard spelling in Romanian; istruiti is a non-diacritic variant often encountered in certain texts or systems that omit diacritics.
