zapewniam

Zapewniam is the first-person singular present indicative form of the Polish imperfective verb zapewniać, meaning to assure, provide, or guarantee in ongoing or habitual contexts. The imperfective aspect emphasizes that the action is described as a general or repeated activity, rather than a single completed event.

Etymology and usage: the verb zapewniać is built with the prefix za- plus the stem related to pewny and pewność, alluding to certainty and reliability. A related perfective form, zapewnić, is used for a one-time or completed guarantee, often in a future sense, such as promising a specific outcome.

Conjugation and forms: in the present tense, the forms are: ja zapewniam, ty zapewniasz, on/ona/ono zapewnia, my zapewniamy, wy zapewniacie, oni zapewniają. There are corresponding past and future forms in both imperfective and perfective aspects, as well as related nouns and adjectives.

Usage notes: zapewniać and its present form zapewniam are common in formal and informal Polish when making assurances or committing to deliver something. They appear in contexts such as customer service, project commitments, or routine assurances. Example sentences include: "Zapewniam cię, że to zrobię" (I assure you that I will do it) and "Zapewniam obsługę na najwyższym poziomie" (I provide/guarantee service at the highest level).

Translations: in English, zapewniać can be rendered as “to assure,” “to provide,” or “to guarantee,” depending on context. Zapewniam specifically means “I assure” or “I guarantee (to you).”
