parduodu

Parduodu is a Lithuanian verb form meaning I am selling or I sell. It is the first person singular present indicative of the verb parduoti, which means to sell. The infinitive parduoti is used to describe the action in general, while parduodu identifies the speaker as the seller. In everyday language the form is common in conversations and especially in classified ads, for example: Parduodu automobilį; Parduodu butą.

Grammatically, parduoti is a regular verb of the -oti conjugation. Its present tense forms are built on the stem parduod- with person endings: 1st singular parduodu; 2nd parduodi; 3rd parduoda; 1st plural parduodame; 2nd plural parduodate; 3rd plural parduoda. The verb typically takes a direct object in the accusative case, as in Parduodu sportinę prekę. It can also appear in short, stand-alone forms common in classifieds, such as Parduodu.

Related terms include pardavimas (sale), pardavėjas (seller), pirkėjas (buyer), and parduodamas (being sold or for sale). The word is used similarly to the English phrase “I am selling” in simple statements about a transaction. In Lithuanian, Parduodu is often paired with the item name to clearly indicate that the speaker is offering an item for sale.
