Doporuím

Doporuím is the first‑person singular present tense form of the Czech verb doporučit, meaning “to recommend” or “to advise.” The verb itself is derived from the root doporuč, which comes from the Old Czech doporučati, originally meaning “to inform, check, or ascertain.” In modern Czech, doporučit is a transitive verb used to express the act of giving a suggestion or endorsement to someone. The conjugation of this verb follows the pattern of regular -ovat verbs, with the present tense ending –ím for the first person singular.

In usage, Doporuím is commonly used in everyday conversation and written communication to express one’s personal endorsement, example of which is “Doporuím to jídlo, je vynikající” (I recommend this food, it is excellent). The phrase can be further expanded in polite requests or advice contexts such as “Můžete mi doporuít místo pro ubytování?” (Could you recommend a place to stay?). In literary Czech, the verb carries a slightly formal tone and is frequently found in reviews, travel guides, and academic recommendations.

Related forms include the infinitive doporučit, past tense doporučil, and the passive form doporučeno. Synonyms in Czech include nabídnout (to offer), radit (to advise), and poradit (to give advice). While the verb is straightforward, its usage can vary in politeness levels: a more informal variant is “doporuju” used in speech, whereas "doporučím" is preferred in formal writing. The lexical entry for Doporuím would also reference the broader category of recommendation verbs within the Czech language, and could point readers to examples in media, such as advertising slogans that often employ the phrase to persuade consumers.
