susitikim

Susitikim is a term that can be seen in Lithuanian-language contexts, though it is not a standard dictionary form. In standard Lithuanian, the noun for a meeting is susitikimas, and the verb to meet is susitikti. The forms susitikimo (genitive) and susitikimą (accusative) are common inflected variants. The exact string susitikim without ending is not a conventional inflection in formal usage. When encountered, it is typically as a stylized name or title rather than a grammatical form.

Etymology and form

Susitikim derives from the verb susitikti meaning to meet, with the prefix su- indicating togetherness. The normal noun formation from this root is susitikimas, meaning “a meeting” or “an encounter.” The shorter string susitikim is not listed as a standard form in prescriptive Lithuanian grammar and is usually used in branding, headlines, or informal writing.

Usage and context

In ordinary prose and official contexts, speakers would use susitikimas to denote a meeting or gathering. Possessive or case endings would appear according to standard grammar (e.g., susitikimo, susitikimą). The simplified form susitikim may appear as a brand name, event title, or social-media handle, where authors intentionally choose a compact or memorable spelling. When in doubt, use the standard susitikimas for the noun and susitikti for the verb in formal writing.
