prebiehajú

Prebiehajú is the 3rd person plural present indicative form of the Slovak verb prebiehať. It means that something is taking place or occurring and is used to describe events or processes that are currently ongoing. As an imperfective verb, prebiehať describes an action in progress without focusing on its completion, and prebiehajú emphasizes that several subjects are involved in the ongoing activity.

It is formed with the prefix pre- added to biehať (to run, to proceed). The imperfective aspect contrasts with the perfective counterpart prebehnúť, which expresses a completed occurrence or a single, one-off event.

Usage examples:

- Konferencia prebieha dnes v Bratislave.

- Podujatia prebiehajú od rána a potrvajú do večera.

In Slovak, prebiehať and its forms are intransitive and do not take a direct object. The form prebiehajú is commonly used in news reports, event descriptions, and timelines to indicate ongoing occurrences.
