trwam

Trwam is a Polish word that functions as the first-person singular present tense form of the verb trwać, meaning to last, endure, or persist. In everyday Polish, trwam expresses ongoing persistence or steadfastness, often conveying a sense of continuing effort or commitment.

In Polish media and public life, Trwam is used as a motto and brand name by Catholic broadcasting groups. Notably, TV Trwam is a Polish television channel operated by a Catholic media network associated with Radio Maryja; the word Trwam appears as the channel’s name and features in related campaigns and programming. The term has also appeared in slogans, promotional materials, and event branding connected with the network, reflecting a message of perseverance in faith, tradition, and community values.

Beyond its use as a proper name in media, the word retains its everyday meaning and can appear in literary and journalistic contexts to express ongoing action or commitment. While most commonly recognized in relation to Catholic broadcasting in Poland, the term remains a standard form of the verb trwać and is part of general Polish vocabulary describing perseverance or continuity. Related terms include the verb trwać, and media entities such as Radio Maryja and TV Trwam.
