naloge

Naloge (plural) is a Slovenian noun meaning tasks, assignments, or duties; the singular is naloga. It denotes something a person or group is obliged to do, either as part of a role or as a specific task to be completed. The word derives from the verb naložiti, “to load” or “to impose,” reflecting the sense of an obligation placed on someone.

In education, naloge are tasks assigned to students to practice material or demonstrate understanding. Common phrases include domača naloga (homework) and naloge za preverjanje znanja (practice problems). Tasks may have deadlines and are usually evaluated by teachers.

In work and administration, naloge refer to duties or work orders assigned to employees or teams. Phrases such as delovne naloge (work tasks) or naloga dodeljena (assigned task) are used in project management, operations, and service delivery. The verb form izvesti nalogo means to carry out or complete a task.

In ethics, law, and formal contexts, naloga can denote an obligation or responsibility arising from a contract, role, or statute. The term is used across registers from everyday speech to official documentation, maintaining a focus on what must be done rather than merely what is desired.

Translations of naloga include task, assignment, or duty, depending on context. The plural naloge is used for multiple tasks or duties, while the singular naloga refers to a single task or obligation.
