The perfective counterpart is naprawić, with future form naprawię (“I will repair”). Past tense forms include naprawiałem (masculine singular, imperfective) and naprawiłem (masculine singular, perfective).

Usage and meaning: Naprawiam is used with a direct object, for example naprawiam samochód (I am repairing the car) or naprawiam komputer (I am repairing the computer). It appears in everyday language across contexts such as home maintenance, automotive repair, electronics, and other hands-on tasks.
