pateikiame

Pateikiame is a Lithuanian verb meaning "we present" or "we submit". It is the first-person plural present tense form of the verb pateikti. This verb is commonly used in formal contexts, such as when presenting a report, submitting a document, or offering a proposal. For example, "Mes pateikiame savo pasiūlymą" translates to "We are presenting our proposal". The root of the verb, teikti, signifies giving or providing, and the prefix pa- often indicates an action being completed or presented for consideration. Therefore, pateikti carries the nuance of bringing something forward for examination or acceptance. The verb can also be used in more general situations where one is offering something to someone else, though this usage is less frequent than its formal applications. Understanding pateikiame is key to comprehending formal Lithuanian communication, particularly in academic, professional, and official settings.
