Dysponuj

Dysponuj is the second-person singular imperative form of the Polish verb dysponować. The verb means to have at one’s disposal or to be in a position to use or deploy something, such as resources, time, or authority. The infinitive is dysponować, and related forms include the noun dysponowanie (disposal, having at one’s disposal) and the adjective dysponujący (having at one’s disposal, in a position of control).

Etymology and range of meaning. Dysponować derives from the Latin disponere (to arrange, to arrange resources) and has entered Polish with influence from other Romance and early modern sources. In modern usage, it conveys not merely possession but the exercise of control or management over assets, plans, or circumstances. The phrase być/dysponować czymś is common, as in be able to use or allocate a resource.

Grammar and usage notes. Dysponować governs the instrumental case: dysponować czymś (to have something at one’s disposal). Present tense forms include dysponuję, dysponujesz, dysponuje, dysponujemy, dysponujecie, dysponują. The imperative form dysponuj is used to instruct someone to use or mobilize a resource. The related noun dysponowanie denotes the act or process of disposal or effective management of resources. A near-synonym is posiadać, though dysponować emphasizes control and allocation rather than mere ownership.
