zaprosisz

Zaprosisz is a Polish verb form. It is the second person singular future tense of the perfective verb zaprosić, meaning “to invite.” It denotes a future action that the speaker attributes to the person being addressed, for example: Zaprosisz ją na kolację. You will invite her to dinner.

In contrast, the imperfective verb zapraszać expresses inviting in a general, repeated, or incomplete sense, whereas zaprosić conveys a single, completed act of inviting. The two verbs form a common pair in Polish grammar, with zaprosić serving as the perfective counterpart to zapraszać.

Conjugation in the future tense of zaprosić (relevant forms): ja zaproszę, ty zaprosisz, on/ona zaprosi, my zaprosimy, wy zaprosicie, oni zaproszą. The form zaprosisz specifically corresponds to the second person singular informal “you.” Past tense forms are formed with appropriate auxiliary pronouns, e.g., zaprosiłeś (masculine), zaprosiłaś (feminine).

Usage notes: Zaprosisz is used in declarative sentences about a planned future action or in conditional clauses. It can appear in direct requests framed as statements about what the addressed person will do, or in planning discussions: Jeśli zaprosisz go, on przyjdzie.

Etymology: zaprosić is derived from a prefix za- attached to the verb prosić (to ask), conveying the sense of asking someone to come or join for a particular occasion. It is the perfective form corresponding to the imperfective zapraszać (to invite, in a general or repeated sense).
