upewnimy

Upewnimy is a form of the Polish verb upewnić, meaning to ensure, to make sure, or to reassure. It is the first-person plural future tense, used to express a commitment to take actions that verify facts, clarify a situation, or guarantee an outcome. As a perfective verb, upewnić emphasizes the completion of the action, signaling that the process of making sure will be carried out.

Grammatical notes: The verb has related forms such as upewnię (I will ensure) and upewnisz (you will ensure). The reflexive form, upewnimy się, is common when the action concerns confirming something for oneself or ensuring readiness: we will make sure (for ourselves) that... It is typically used in formal or semi-formal contexts, including written communications and project updates.

Etymology: The verb is built from the root pew- (related to pewny, certain, sure) with the prefix u- and the infinitive ending -ić. The sense is to induce certainty or to bring about a state of being sure about something.

Usage: In practice, upewnimy expresses a commitment to verify or secure a condition. It is often paired with clauses beginning with że or used with direct objects: "Upewnimy się, że dokumenty są kompletne," or "Upewnimy dokumenty, że spełniają wymagania." Synonyms include zapewnić or zagwarantować, though they carry slightly different nuances; upewnić more strongly stresses verification and accuracy.
