Popierajcie is a Polish imperative form meaning “you all support.” It is the second-person plural of the verb popierać (to support, back). Grammatically, it expresses a direct exhortation or command addressed to a group, urging them to endorse a person, idea, project, or initiative.

Usage and context: Popierajcie is commonly used in political rhetoric, activism, public discourse, or any situation where speakers or writers address a group and call them to provide support. It can appear in speeches, posters, petitions, or social media appeals. It is a neutral to slightly forceful form, depending on tone and context.

Other related nouns are poparcie (support, backing) and popieranie (the act of supporting). While popierajcie specifically targets a group, the singular form popieraj (addressing one person informally) is also used in direct commands.
