primenjuje

Primenjuje is the third-person singular present tense form of the verb primeniti, used in several South Slavic languages to mean "applies" or "implements." It is typically employed to indicate that a person or an entity is applying a method, rule, technique, or piece of technology in a given context. The sense is often technical, legal, or academic, but can appear in everyday speech as well.

Grammatical notes: Primeniti is a transitive verb and takes a direct object in the accusative case, such as metodu (method), pravilo (rule), or tehnologiju (technology). The present tense forms include: ja primenjujem, ti primenjuješ, on primenjuje, mi primenjujemo, vi primenjujete, oni primenjuju. The verb can also occur in the reflexive passive sense as primenjuje se, meaning "is applied" or "is being applied."

Related forms and usage: The noun primena means “application” or “implementation,” commonly used to refer to the act of applying something or the state of being applied. Related adjectives and phrases may describe the applicability or suitability of a method or rule. The infinitive form primeniti is used to describe the act in a general sense, while variations in spelling and usage may appear across regional varieties of the language.
