Zalecamy

Zalecamy is a Polish verb form meaning "we recommend" or "we advise." It is the first-person plural present tense of the verb zalecać, which conveys giving guidance or prescribing a course of action. The form is common in official communications, health advisories, consumer instructions, and editorial guidelines, where a group or authority communicates a recommended action to an audience.

As a regular -ać verb, zalecamy is used with an infinitive or with clauses introduced by że, aby, or żeby. Examples include: "Zalecamy stosowanie kremu ochronnego" (We recommend using protective cream) and "Zalecamy, aby pacjent skonsultował się z lekarzem" (We advise the patient to consult a doctor). "Zalecane jest" can be used when turning the phrase into a general recommendation: "Zalecane jest unikanie nagłych zmian temperatury." The noun form "zalecenie" means a recommendation, while the adjective "zalecany" means recommended.

In usage, zalecamy tends to appear in formal contexts; in everyday speech speakers may opt for synonyms such as polecamy, radzimy, or zachęcamy depending on nuance. The term is closely related to related forms: "zalecać" (the infinitive), "zalecenie" (noun), and "zalecany" (adjective).
