hlásim

Hlásim is the first-person singular present indicative form of the Czech verb hlásit, meaning to report, inform, or announce. The verb is used when someone communicates information to another person, a group, or an authority, often supplying new or important details.

Usage and meanings. Hlásit can take a direct object or introduce a clause with že to report something. Common contexts include reporting news, weather, incidents, or updates to colleagues, authorities, or the public. In journalism and broadcasting, hlásím is frequently used at the start of a bulletin, as in Hlásím, že dnešní data show… or Hlásím, že za 10 minut přijede vlak. The action can cover both factual reports (hlásit výsledek, hlásit havárii) and informational announcements (hlásit změnu, hlásit omezení).

Relations and distinctions. The verb differs from the reflexive hlásit se, which means to register, apply, or report oneself for something. Related nouns include hlášení (a report or announcement) and veřejné hlášení (public announcement). Synonyms include oznamovat and informovat, though hlásit often carries a sense of delivering information to someone specific or to the public through a relay.

Examples. Hlásím, že stávka skončila a provoz bude obnoven. Hlásím, že se zdržení prodlouží o deset minut. Hlásím také, že dnes bude jasno.

Etymology. Hlásit derives from a Slavic root associated with hlas, meaning voice or sound, and historically signified proclaiming or declaring something aloud.
