principalilor

Principalilor is a Romanian grammatical form, specifically the genitive (and dative) plural of the noun principal. The base noun can refer to a school administrator (the principal) or, more broadly, to something that is main or principal. As a genitive plural, principalilor marks possession or association with more than one principal, for example: carțile principalilor (the principals’ books) or responsabilitatea principalilor (the principals’ responsibility).

Morphology and usage notes: the nominative plural of the noun is principalii, while the genitive plural is principalilor. The feminine form is principalele, and the genitive singular is principalului. In contemporary Romanian, principalilor is primarily used in written or formal contexts to indicate ownership or relation to multiple principal figures or entities.

Usage context: principalilor does not denote a separate concept or organization. It is a grammatical form employed to express relationships such as ownership, attribution, or association with the principal figures in a text. It commonly appears in administrative, educational, or descriptive writing where the actions, documents, or responsibilities pertain to several principals.

Examples:

- Documentele principalilor au fost aprobate de Consiliul de administrație. (The principals’ documents were approved by the Board of Administration.)

- Activitatea principalilor a fost monitorizată în raportul anual. (The principals’ activity was monitored in the annual report.)

- Deciziile luate de principalilor au impact asupra întregii școli. (The principals’ decisions affect the entire school.)

Overall, principalilor functions as a standard inflected form within Romanian grammar, used to express possession or association with multiple principal figures.
