Vidi is the basic verb for visual perception (to see). It is used like English 'to see' for noticing things, meeting someone (Mi vidis lin hieraŭ = I saw him yesterday), or understanding in some contexts. Remember Esperanto stress falls on the penultimate syllable (VI-di). Objects take the accusative (-n): 'Mi vidas la hundon.'
