Spustite cenu.

Spustite is the imperative form of the verb spustiti. In this sentence, it means lower! or bring down!

So Spustite cenu. literally means something like Lower the price.

It is the form used when speaking to:

• more than one person (you all lower...), or
• one person formally/politely (please lower...)

Because cenu is the accusative singular form of cena (price).

In Serbian, the direct object of a verb usually goes into the accusative case. Since the thing being lowered is the price, cena changes to cenu.

• nominative: cena = the price
• accusative: cenu = the price as the object of the verb

So:

• Cena je visoka. = The price is high.
• Spustite cenu. = Lower the price.

It is usually understood as formal if you are speaking to one person, because spustite is the 2nd person plural / formal imperative.

So it can mean:

• Lower the price. said to one person politely/formally
• Lower the price. said to several people

If you want the informal singular version, you would say:

• Spusti cenu. = Lower the price. (to one friend, peer, child, etc.)

The infinitive is spustiti.

A few useful related forms are:

• spustiti = to lower, to bring down
• spuštati = to be lowering / to lower repeatedly or over time

In this sentence, spustiti is the natural base verb because the command refers to a single completed action: lower the price.

Spustiti is a perfective verb, which means it usually refers to a completed action.

In commands, Serbian often uses the perfective when the speaker wants someone to do the action and achieve the result.

So Spustite cenu. suggests:

• Bring the price down
• Make the price lower

If you used the imperfective verb spuštati, the imperative would be Spuštajte cenu, which sounds more like:

• Keep lowering the price
• Be lowering the price
• a repeated or ongoing action

For a normal request like Lower the price, the perfective Spustite is the expected choice.

Yes, it is understandable and natural enough, especially in a direct sense of bring the price down.

However, Serbian also very commonly uses the verb sniziti for prices:

• Snizite cenu. = Lower the price.

Many learners will hear sniziti/snižavati cenu in shopping, business, or negotiation contexts because it is very specifically associated with reducing a price.

So:

• Spustite cenu. = natural, understandable, literally bring the price down
• Snizite cenu. = also very natural, often especially common for prices

Yes. If you want to sound more polite, you can say:

• Molim vas, spustite cenu.
• Molim vas, snizite cenu.

Molim vas means please.

Without molim vas, Spustite cenu. can sound quite direct, depending on the situation and tone of voice. Serbian imperatives are often more direct than English ones, but adding molim vas makes the request clearly polite.

Yes, but that is normal in Serbian.

The subject you does not need to be stated, because it is already built into spustite.

So Serbian normally says:

• Spustite cenu.

not

• Vi spustite cenu.

You can add vi only for emphasis or contrast, for example if you want to stress you specifically.

Yes, Serbian word order is fairly flexible, but Spustite cenu. is the most neutral and natural order.

Other orders are possible for emphasis, for example:

• Cenu spustite.

This can sound more marked, as if emphasizing the price in particular.

For most learners, the best default is:

• Spustite cenu.

A simple approximate pronunciation is:

• SPOO-stee-teh TSEH-noo

A few sound notes:

• u is like oo in food
• c in Serbian is pronounced ts
• e is usually a clear eh sound

So:

• spustite ≈ SPOO-stee-teh
• cenu ≈ TSEH-noo

You would say:

• Spusti cenu.

Compare:

• Spusti cenu. = informal singular
• Spustite cenu. = formal singular or plural

And with the alternative verb:

• Snizi cenu. = informal singular
• Snizite cenu. = formal singular or plural
