odejmujemy

Odejmujemy is a grammatical form of the Polish verb odejmować, meaning we subtract or we remove. It represents the present tense, first-person plural (we). The verb odejmować is imperfective, which means it describes an ongoing or repeated action, as opposed to a completed subtraction.

In usage, odejmujemy appears in mathematical and everyday contexts. In arithmetic, it is used to describe the operation of subtracting one quantity from another, for example: Odejmujemy 5 od 12, otrzymujemy 7. Beyond numbers, it can also mean removing or deducting something in non-mathematical contexts, such as Odejmujemy koszty od budżetu (we deduct costs from the budget). The form follows standard Polish conjugation, with the -ujemy ending marking the first-person plural present tense.

Etymologically, odejmować combines the prefix od- (indicating separation) with the root related to taking or grasping, reflecting the sense of taking away or removing a part from a whole. The noun form is odejmowanie (the act of subtracting or removing), and related forms include odejmij (imperative) and odjęcie (archaic or formal alternative in some contexts).

Odejmujemy thus functions as a common, neutral verb form in Polish for describing subtraction or removal by a group in the present tense. It is widely understood in educational, scientific, and everyday language. See also odejmować, odejmowanie, and related grammatical forms.
