Oferujcy

Oferujcy is a non-diacritic rendering of the Polish term typically written as oferujący in standard orthography. It designates the present participle of the verb oferować, meaning “the one who offers” or “the offering party.” In most contexts, oferujący functions as an adjective or as a nominalized participle referring to a person or entity that makes an offer.

Etymology and form

The word derives from the verb oferować (to offer) and the present participle suffix -ący. The related noun oferta denotes the act or result of offering, while offerent terms such as oferent are also used in formal or legal language to denote the party making an offer. The diacritic form oferujący is the standard spelling in Polish; ASCII or diacritic-free variants (including oferujący or, less commonly, oferujacy) appear in older texts or in contexts where diacritics are omitted.

Grammar and usage

Oferujący can function as an adjective agreeing with a noun, as in “oferujący warunki” (the party offering the terms). It can also be used as a noun in some contexts to mean “the offeror” or “the bidder,” though in procurement and legal writing the more common noun is often oferent or bidder terms such as wykonawca or oferent. The word primarily emphasizes the act of offering rather than the content of the offer itself.

Examples

- Oferujący przedstawił warunki umowy. (The party offering presented the contract terms.)

- W przetargu udział wziął oferent, który złożył najkorzystniejszą ofertę.

Note: In legal and procurement contexts, terminology can vary by jurisdiction, and oferent or bid-related terms may be preferred over the participial form.
