Stwórz

stwórz is a Polish verb form that functions as the imperative meaning “create” or “make.” It is the second-person singular imperative of the perfective verb stworzyć, which indicates a command to perform a completed act of creation. It contrasts with tworzyć, whose imperative is twórz (you create, in an ongoing sense).

Because stworzyć is perfective, stwórz emphasizes the result rather than an ongoing process. It is commonly used in instructions, prompts, and user interfaces to request a one-time action, such as “stwórz konto” (create an account) or “stwórz nowy plik” (create a new file). The form is widely used in both formal and informal contexts where a single, completed action is intended.

Other forms include the plural imperative “stwórzcie” (you all create) and the negative imperatives “nie stwórz” and “nie stwórzcie” (do not create). Related noun forms include “stworzenie” (creation) and the adjective “stworzony” (created). The verb also lends the participle “tworzący” in some related constructions.

Etymology traces stworzyć to a derivation of the root “twor-” meaning to form or shape, with a prefix that marks completion; together with tworzyć, it reflects a long-standing Polish aspectual distinction between completed events and ongoing processes. In usage, stwórz remains a common choice whenever a speaker asks for a single, finished act of creation. See also: tworzyć, stworzenie, stwórca.
