rozmawiam

Rozmawiam is the first-person singular present tense form of the Polish verb rozmawiać, meaning to converse or to talk. It expresses an action happening now or a habitual action. The verb is imperfective, so it covers ongoing or repeated talking rather than a completed event.

Usage of rozmawiam commonly appears with a person or a topic and may include the prepositions z (with) or o (about). Examples: Rozmawiam z tobą. Rozmawiamy o podróżach. Rozmawiam po polsku. These illustrate talking with someone, discussing topics, or using a language.

Conjugation and grammar: as a present tense form, rozmawiam follows the regular pattern of a Polish -ać verb; other persons are: ty rozmawiasz, on/ona rozmawia, my rozmawiamy, wy rozmawiacie, oni rozmawiają. The verb is imperfective; past actions are expressed with forms like rozmawiałem (masc) or rozmawiałam (fem), and future can be formed with będę rozmawiać. The perfective counterpart porozmawiać expresses a single, completed conversation.

Related terms: rozmowa means a conversation; rozmowny is an adjective meaning talkative. Rozmawiać is widely used in everyday Polish, in both informal speech and writing.
