nienawidzimy

Nienawidzimy is the first-person plural present tense of the Polish verb nienawidzić, meaning "we hate." It expresses a strong collective dislike or moral judgment about someone or something. The phrase appears in formal and informal contexts, including political statements, media commentary, and everyday speech.

Grammatically, nienawidzimy is built on the stem nienawidz- with the ending -my for the first-person plural in the present tense.
