kvalifikuoj

The Lithuanian verb "kvalifikuoti" translates to "to qualify" in English. It is a transitive verb and indicates the act of making someone or something meet specific requirements, standards, or conditions. This can apply in various contexts, such as education, employment, or legal matters.

For example, one might say "universitetas kvalifikuoja studentus tam tikroms pareigoms," meaning "the university qualifies students for certain positions." This implies that the educational program provides the necessary skills, knowledge, and credentials that make the students suitable for those roles. Similarly, a product could be "kvalifikuota" for a specific market if it meets all the relevant regulations and standards.

In a legal context, a person might be "kvalifikuojamas" as a suspect if evidence suggests their involvement in a crime. This means they are classified or identified as such based on the available information. The past active participle is "kvalifikavęs" (having qualified), and the past passive participle is "kvalifikuotas" (qualified). The present active participle is "kvalifikuojantis" (qualifying), and the present passive participle is "kvalifikuojamas" (being qualified). Understanding these forms is crucial for accurate usage in Lithuanian sentences.
