Získava

Získava is a Czech verb form, specifically the present tense, third-person singular of the imperfective verb získávat. The base imperfective verb získávat contrasts with získat, the perfective counterpart meaning “to obtain” or “to acquire.” Etymologically, získávat expresses ongoing or repeated acquisition, whereas získat describes a completed act.

In usage, získává is used with a direct object in the accusative to denote gaining or obtaining something, and it often appears in contexts like gaining experience, funds, or customers. Examples include: „Získává nové zkušenosti,“ meaning he/she is gaining new experience, and „Firma získává grant,“ meaning the company is obtaining a grant. The imperfective aspect allows ongoing processes (získávat peníze, získávat kontakty), while the perfective forms (získat, získá) emphasize a completed result.

Noun forms related to the verb include získávání, the gerund meaning “the process of obtaining” or “the gaining.” The verb is frequent in formal and neutral styles, including business, journalism, and everyday discourse when describing ongoing acquisition or accumulation of resources, skills, or achievements.
