Zrestartuj

Zrestartuj is the second-person singular imperative form of the Polish verb zrestartować, meaning to restart or reboot a device, program, or process. It is used to give a direct instruction to someone to perform a restart. The verb is formed from the English loanword restart with the Polish suffix -ować and the prefix z-, which in this formation adds emphasis and marks the action as a complete restart.

Infinitive form of the verb is zrestartować. Imperative forms include zrestartuj (singular), zrestartujcie (plural), and zrestartujmy (let us restart). The term is common in technical and informal contexts, especially in IT support, user manuals, and troubleshooting guides. It often appears as a concise command or onscreen prompt.

Zrestartuj is often contrasted with other verbs for restarting or resetting. Uruchom ponownie means “start it again” in a neutral, more formal register, while zresetować or resetować implies returning a device or setting to a default or initial state; the exact nuance depends on context and system terminology.

Examples: Zrestartuj komputer i sprawdź, czy problem nadal występuje. Jeśli aplikacja zawiesza się, zrestartuj ją. Router zrestartuj po upływie 30 sekund.

Notes: The distinction between restart and reset varies by system and locale. In documentation, both zrestartować and uruchom ponownie may appear, but the former is more colloquial and instruction-level, whereas the latter is more formal.
