Pohybujeme

Pohybujeme is the first-person plural present tense form of the Czech reflexive verb pohybovat se, meaning to move oneself or to be in motion. It is used with the reflexive pronoun se, as in my se pohybujeme (we are moving). The infinitive is pohybovat se, and the full present tense forms are: já se pohybuji, ty se pohybuješ, on se pohybuje, my se pohybujeme, vy se pohybujete, oni se pohybují.

Etymology and sense: pohybuje se is built from the noun pohyb (movement) with the verb suffix -ovat and the reflexive pronoun se. The form pohybujeme represents the 1st person plural present and is a standard part of everyday Czech usage when describing movement or progression.

Usage and nuance: The phrase is used to describe bodily movement, travel, or motion within a space, as well as broader progress in a task or situation. It can be literal, as in moving through a city, or metaphorical, such as advancing a project. In sentences, it commonly appears with adverbs of speed or direction, and with prepositional phrases indicating location or route.

Examples:

- Czech: My se pohybujeme po městě. Translation: We are moving around the city.

- Czech: Pohybujeme se rychle, abychom dohonili autobus. Translation: We are moving quickly to catch the bus.
