zaprosi

Zaprosi is a Polish verb form, the third person singular future tense of zaprosić, meaning to invite. It is used to express that someone will invite someone else to an event or occasion. In Polish, perfective verbs like zaprosić convey a completed, definite action, and their present tense forms function as future; thus zaprosi can mean “he will invite” or “she will invite,” depending on context.

Conjugation and usage notes: The verb zaprosić is perfective, so its future tense forms include ja zaproszę, ty zaprosisz, on zaprosi, my zaprosimy, wy zaprosicie, oni zaproszą. Past tense forms are zaprosił (masculine) or zaprosiła (feminine), depending on the subject. The action typically takes a direct object in the accusative, for example: On zaprosi mnie na kolację. He will invite me to dinner.

Difference from related forms: The imperfective counterpart zapraszać means to invite in a general or repeated sense, with present tense forms like zaprasza (invites) and imperfective past forms such as zapraszał/zapraszała. Zaprosić focuses on a specific, completed invitation event, whereas zapraszać emphasizes the ongoing or habitual act of inviting.
