uzyskano

Uzyskano is a Polish verb form derived from uzyskać, meaning to obtain or to gain. It is used primarily in formal and official language to indicate that something has been obtained or achieved, without naming a specific agent. The form functions as an impersonal past-tense construction and is common in reports, statistics, and formal communications.

Grammatical and stylistic notes: Uzyskano represents a past, finite form with a passive or impersonal nuance. It does not specify who obtained the object of the action, making it suitable for presenting results, data, permissions, or recognitions in a neutral, objective tone. In many contexts it can be paraphrased with an active verb such as “otrzymano” or “uzyskano” corresponding to the object in question.

Usage and contexts: The term is frequently found in official documents, scientific papers, government reports, and press releases. Typical collocations include uzyskano dofinansowanie (financing was obtained), uzyskano zgodę (consent was obtained), or uzyskano dane (data were obtained). It is often preferred when the agent is unknown, irrelevant, or intentionally omitted.

Relation to related forms: Uzyskano comes from the verb uzyskać. Related verbs that convey similar notions include zyskać (to gain, usually with an emphasis on benefit) and zdobyć or osiągnąć (to acquire or achieve, with slightly different nuances). The choice among these terms depends on context and emphasis.
