Prevádzame

Prevádzame is the first-person plural present tense form of the Slovak verb prevádzať. It is used to express that “we transfer,” “we convert,” or “we operate” something, depending on context. The form appears in technical writing, logistics, business communication, and everyday language, with the exact meaning determined by its object and the surrounding text.

The verb prevádzať has several related senses. In data processing and logistics, it often means to transfer or convert information, goods, or processes from one state or format to another (for example, transferring data to a new format). In operational or managerial contexts, it can convey the sense of running or operating a system, service, or facility. In some cases, more precise verbs such as prevádzkovat or prevádzkovať may be used to emphasize the act of operating.

Etymology and usage notes: Prevádzať is formed with the prefix pre- attached to vádzať (to lead or guide), a combination that historically carried the sense of moving something across or through. The present tense form prevádzame follows standard Slovak verb conjugation patterns. Because of its broad range of meanings, the intended sense of prevádzame is usually inferred from the object and context in which it appears.

Examples:

- Prevádzame dáta do nového formátu. (We transfer data into a new format.)

- Prevádzame službu podľa nového plánu. (We operate/offer the service according to the new plan.)
