naudoji

Naudoji is the present tense second-person singular form of the Lithuanian verb naudoti, meaning "to use." It is used when addressing one person informally and describing what that person is using or doing with a tool, method, or resource.

Morphology and usage: In Lithuanian, verbs are conjugated for person and number. The verb naudoti yields the following present tense forms: aš naudoju (I use), tu naudoji (you use), jis/ji naudoja (he/she uses), mes naudojame (we use), jūs naudojate (you all use), jie naudoja (they use). Therefore, naudoji marks the second-person singular and appears in declarative sentences about the listener’s current or habitual usage. Examples include: Tu naudoji šią programą kasdien. (You use this program every day.) Tu naudoji seną metodą. (You are using an old method.)

Usage notes: Lithuanian relies on verb endings to indicate the subject, so the pronoun tu is often optional when the form naudoji is present. The form commonly combines with direct objects in the accusative, as in Tu naudoji šį įrankį ar laiką tinkamai.

Related forms: The infinitive is naudoti; related words include naudojimas (usage), naudojamas (used), naudotojas (user), and naudokite (imperative form for you all or formal). Common collocations involve phrases like naudoti technologijas (to use technologies), naudoti laiką (to use time), or naudoti įrankius (to use tools).
