Kochasz

Kochasz is the second-person singular present tense form of the Polish verb kochać, meaning "you love." It is used when addressing someone directly in informal, singular speech. The verb kochać is transitive and takes a direct object in the accusative, as in: "Kochasz mnie" (you love me) or "Kochasz swoją rodzinę" (you love your family).

In Polish present-tense conjugation, kochać forms as: ja kocham, ty kochasz, on/ona kocha, my kochamy, wy kochacie, oni kochają. The form kochasz specifically signals the second-person singular subject "ty." In questions, the same form is used: "Kochasz ten film?" The formal form of address uses the third-person verb form (for example, "Czy pan kocha ten film?") rather than kochasz.

Examples of usage include expressing affection toward people or objects, as well as in everyday conversation, literature, and music. Common constructions include "Kochasz mnie?" (Do you love me?), "Kochasz ten film?" (Do you love this film?), and "Kochasz swoją rodzinę" (You love your family).
