  • Hyphenation: al‧kon‧form‧i‧gi

Verb[edit]

alkonformigi (present alkonformigas, past alkonformigis, future alkonformigos, conditional alkonformigus, volitive alkonformigu)

  1. (transitive) to bring up to standard, to standardize, to bring in line
    • Vladimír Váňa, introduction to his translation of Aventuroj de la Brava Soldato Švejk dum la Mondmilito (The Good Soldier Švejk) by Jaroslav Hašek,
      Al tiu ĉi stilo necesis alkonformigi ankaǔ la stilon de la traduko, ĉar Švejkon formas ne nur tio, kion li faras kaj diras, sed ankaǔ, kiel li tion diras.
      The style of the translation also had to be brought in line with this style, since Švejk is shaped not only by what he does and says, but also by how he says it.
  2. (transitive) to adapt, accommodate
    • L. L. Zamenhof, “Kvin en unu silikvo” (“The Pea Blossom”) in Fabeloj by Hans Christian Andersen, Book 3,
      ili alkonformigis sin al la loĝejo
      they accommodated themselves to their position (lit. to the dwelling)
