praktinius

Praktinius is a form found in the Lithuanian language. It is the accusative plural form of the adjective praktinis, which means "practical." It appears when the adjective modifies masculine plural nouns in the direct object position of a sentence. For example, phrases like praktinius dalykus (practical things) or praktinius klausimus (practical questions) illustrate its function as a grammatical inflection rather than a standalone noun.

Morphology and usage notes: The base form praktinis is formed from the stem prakt- plus the standard Lithuanian adjective suffix -inis. The form praktinius represents the accusative plural and is used to agree with masculine plural nouns in the direct object case. This form does not carry a separate semantic meaning beyond the sense of “practical” conveyed by the adjective; its primary role is grammatical agreement within noun phrases.

In everyday language, praktinius typically appears as part of noun phrases in object position, such as "aš kalbu apie praktinius dalykus" (I am talking about practical things) or "ji išnagrinėjo praktinius klausimus" (she analyzed practical questions). The related forms include praktiniai, the nominative plural used when the subject is a group described as practical.
