obudzi

Obudzi is a Polish verb form derived from the verb obudzić, meaning to wake up or to rouse. In Polish, obudzić is a perfective verb; obudzi is the third-person singular form in the future tense meaning "he/she/it will wake up" or, depending on context, "will wake someone up." It is also the base stem for related forms such as obudził (past masculine), obudziła (past feminine), and obudzimy (we will wake up). The imperfective counterpart is budzić, with its own forms and uses (present budzi, past budził, etc.). The prefix ob- adds a sense of attainment or culmination to the action.

Usage: Obudzi is used when speaking of waking someone or something from sleep, or causing awakening, whether physical or figurative (e.g., awakening interest). In everyday speech, native speakers most often use obudzić in future contexts or as part of compound verb phrases with time expressions. The phrase obudzić kogoś means "to wake someone up." The noun form obudzenie refers to awakening or the process of waking up, while budzenie is the more common noun for wakefulness in absence of the prefix.
