wykonujmy

Wykonujmy is a Polish verb form meaning “let us perform” or “let us carry out.” It is the first-person plural imperative (tryb rozkazujący) of the imperfective verb wykonywać, which means to perform, carry out, or execute. The form expresses a proposal or exhortation to a group that includes the speaker, inviting collective action.

Grammatically, wykonujmy is built from the stem wykonu- with the present-tense first-person plural imperative ending -my, yielding a mood that is optative rather than a straightforward command. Because it derives from an imperfective verb, the nuance often implies a process or ongoing effort rather than a single completed action. The perfective counterpart would be wykońmy or, more commonly, wykonajmy, which signals a more bounded, completed action.

In usage, wykonujmy appears most often in formal, rhetorical, or literary contexts and is less common in everyday speech, where speakers frequently use alternatives such as zróbmy (let us do) or wykonajmy (let us perform to completion), depending on aspect and nuance. Examples: “Wykonujmy ten plan krok po kroku” (Let us carry out this plan step by step), “Wykonujmy nasze obowiązki wobec społeczeństwa” (Let us fulfill our duties to society).

Overall, wykonujmy serves as a constructive, inclusive exhortation to collective action in Polish, reflecting the language’s capability to express coordinated endeavors within a group.
