Montují is a Czech verb form meaning they mount, assemble, or install. It is the present tense, third-person plural of the imperfective verb montovat. The related, more general action is to mount or assemble components, machinery, furniture, or structures. In everyday use, montují often describes ongoing or repeated activities in manufacturing, construction, logistics, and service industries.

The infinitive montovat originates from the German verb montieren, a loanword that entered Czech with the sense of fitting together parts or attaching components. Related Czech terms include montáž (assembly or installation), montážní (assembly-related), and namontovat (to mount or install completely; a perfective counterpart to montovat). The distinction between montují (imperfective present) and namontují (perfective, with a future or completed sense) is an important aspect of Czech aspect.

Usage and nuance: Montují is commonly used for ongoing or habitual mounting work, such as in factory lines, carpentry, or construction projects. Examples: Montují nábytek na skladě. (They are assembling furniture in the warehouse.) Montují okna do nového domu. (They are installing windows in the new house.) In contexts requiring a completed action, speakers may use namontují, namontovat, or another perfective form.
