Testuje

Testuje is a Polish verb form and appears as the third person singular present tense of the verb testować, meaning to test or to try out. It is used to describe someone performing a test or evaluating something in the present moment.

In Polish, testować belongs to the -ować verb class. Its present tense forms include: ja testuję, ty testujesz, on/ona/ono testuje, my testujemy, wy testujecie, oni testują. The root is test-, and the endings follow standard patterns for -ować verbs in the present tense.

Usage and nuance: testuje is common in technical and scientific contexts, as well as in everyday language. It often conveys systematic evaluation according to procedures or criteria, rather than a casual try. Related verbs include sprawdzać (to check) and przetestować (to test thoroughly, perfective). The choice of word can reflect aspect and completeness of the evaluation.

Etymology and usage: testować is a loanword formed from the English noun test, adapted to Polish morphology with the -ować suffix. Since the late 20th century it has become widely used across domains such as information technology, engineering, medicine, and research, contributing to a broader set of present-tense forms like testuje in common discourse.

Examples:

- On testuje nową wersję oprogramowania. (He tests a new software version.)

- Laboratorium testuje próbki pod kątem jakości. (The laboratory tests samples for quality.)
