doplavávat

Doplavávat is a Czech verb that describes the action of swimming to a destination or reaching a place by swimming. It is a compound verb formed from the prefix "do-" meaning "to" or "until" and the verb "plavat" meaning "to swim." The prefix "do-" indicates completion of the action of swimming towards a specific point.

The verb can be used in various contexts. For example, one might doplavávat k ostrovu (swim to the island) or doplavávat na druhý břeh (swim to the other bank). It implies a journey or effort to reach a location using swimming as the mode of transport. The imperfective aspect of the verb, doplavávat, suggests an ongoing or repeated action of swimming towards a goal, whereas the perfective aspect, doplavat, would denote the completion of that action in a single instance. It is a common verb used in descriptions of aquatic activities and journeys.
