Potwierdz

Potwierdz is not a standalone Polish infinitive in standard usage; it is the stem of the verbs potwierdzić and potwierdzać, which mean to confirm or to verify. The infinitives themselves are potwierdzić (perfective) and potwierdzać (imperfective). The stem potwierdz- appears in the present tense forms: potwierdzam, potwierdzasz, potwierdza, potwierdzamy, potwierdzacie, potwierdzają. It also appears in other conjugations and participles, such as potwierdzony (confirmed) and potwierdzając (confirming). The imperative forms are potwierdź (singular) and potwierdzcie (plural).

Usage and meaning

Potwierdz is used as part of the verb system that conveys confirmation, verification, or corroboration. In full forms, it carries the same sense as the related verb potwierdzić: to verify information, confirm identity, or acknowledge receipt. Common phrases include tożsamość: potwierdzić tożsamość (to confirm identity), datę: potwierdzić datę (to confirm the date), odbiór: potwierdzić odbiór (to confirm receipt). The term is part of standard Polish vocabulary and is semantically linked to twierdzić (to state) and potwierdzanie (verification).

Orthography and variants

In proper Polish spelling, the root appears with diacritics in the imperative (potwierdź). The ASCII string potwierdz is sometimes seen in programming, data-entry contexts, or language-technology resources as a representation of the stem, but it is not the standard dictionary form.
