Doplní

Doplní is a form of the Czech verb doplnit, meaning to add to something that is missing, to complete, or to supplement. It is a perfective verb, used to describe a completed action and is commonly understood in future contexts when written in the present tense form. The basic infinitive is doplnit, while doplní corresponds to the third-person singular present or future meaning “he/she/it will complete” or “will fill in.”

Etymology and related forms: doplnit is built from the prefix do- (toward, to) and the verb plnit (to fill, to fulfil). Its imperfective counterpart is doplňovat/doplňovat, which emphasizes the ongoing process of adding information.

Usage and contexts: Doplní frequently appears in administrative, technical, and formal language. Typical meanings include filling in missing data, completing information in documents, or supplementing a text with additional details. Examples include: “Doplní chybějící údaje do formuláře” (They will fill in the missing data in the form) and “V textu doplní závěrečnou poznámku” (They will supplement the text with a concluding note). Because doplnit is perfective, doplní often indicates a single, completed action in the future, rather than an ongoing process.

Grammatical notes: In addition to the third-person singular form doplní, the verb also appears in other persons and numbers as doplním (I will fill in), doplníš (you will fill in), doplníme, doplníte, doplní (they will fill in). Past forms include doplnil, doplnila, doplnili, doplnily. As a result, doplní is primarily used to denote a forthcoming or completed addition to information, data, or text.
