Dmuchacie

Dmuchacie is the second person plural present tense form of the Polish verb dmuchać, meaning “to blow.” It is used when addressing more than one person, and translates roughly to “you blow” or “you are blowing” in English. The form appears in ordinary speech, instructional text, and narratives describing actions involving air, breath, or flames.

Dmuchacie belongs to the imperfective aspect, which describes an ongoing, habitual, or repeated action rather than a single completed event. The present-tense paradigm of this verb is dmucham, dmuchasz, dmucha, dmuchamy, dmuchacie, dmuchają. The imperfective dmuchać contrasts with the perfective counterpart dmuchnąć, which conveys a single, completed act of blowing, such as extinguishing a flame.

Examples of use include: Dmuchacie na świecę, żeby zgasić płomień. Wy dmuchacie na ogień, gdy trzeba go ostudzić i przestawić. These sentences illustrate how dmuchacie can describe directing air toward a target in order to affect it, typically to extinguish a flame or influence its behavior.

Etymology and related forms: dmuchać derives from the Polish root dmuch-, related to blowing or breathing and shared with cognate Slavic languages. The verb forms follow the standard conjugation pattern for hierarchically regular -ać verbs in Polish.
