Przekazuję jedwab wraz z aksamitem.

In Polish, the subject pronoun is often omitted because the verb ending already shows who is doing the action.

Here, przekazuję means I am handing over / I hand over / I transfer. The ending -ę tells you the subject is I.

So:

• Przekazuję jedwab wraz z aksamitem. = I am handing over silk along with velvet.
• Ja przekazuję... is possible, but ja is usually added only for emphasis, contrast, or clarity.

Przekazuję is the 1st person singular present tense of przekazywać.

Depending on context, it can mean:

• I hand over
• I pass on
• I transfer
• I convey

In this sentence, it most naturally means something like I am handing over or I transfer.

A useful point for learners: Polish present tense can often translate into either simple present or present continuous in English, depending on context.

Because the two nouns are in different grammatical cases.

• jedwab is the direct object of przekazuję, so it is in the accusative case
• aksamitem comes after wraz z, which requires the instrumental case

So:

• jedwab = accusative (same form here as nominative because it is an inanimate masculine noun)
• aksamitem = instrumental singular of aksamit

This is very common in Polish: different parts of the sentence require different cases.

Because z in the sense of with takes the instrumental case, and wraz z behaves the same way.

So:

• z aksamitem = with velvet
• wraz z aksamitem = together with velvet / along with velvet

That is why you get aksamitem, not aksamit.

A few similar examples:

• z przyjacielem = with a friend
• wraz z dokumentami = together with the documents
• z rodziną = with the family

Both can mean with, but wraz z is usually a bit more formal or explicit.

• z aksamitem = with velvet
• wraz z aksamitem = together with velvet / along with velvet

So wraz z often emphasizes that one thing accompanies another. In many contexts, it sounds slightly more official, written, or careful than plain z.

In everyday speech, people often just use z unless they want that extra nuance.

It is present tense.

The verb przekazywać is imperfective, so its present-tense forms describe:

• an action happening now,
• a habitual action,
• or sometimes a planned action, depending on context.

So przekazuję can mean:

• I am handing over
• I hand over
• sometimes I’m in the process of transferring

If you wanted a perfective future idea such as I will hand over (once, completely), Polish would typically use przekażę from the perfective verb przekazać.

Because jedwab is a masculine inanimate noun, and for many masculine inanimate nouns, the accusative singular looks the same as the nominative singular.

So:

• nominative: jedwab
• accusative: jedwab

That is normal.

Compare:

• Mam stół. = I have a table.
  (stół stays masculine inanimate, though its accusative can match nominative depending on form)
• Widzę jedwab. = I see silk.

By contrast, masculine animate nouns usually change in the accusative:

• nominative: student
• accusative: studenta

In this sentence, jedwab is in the accusative singular because it is the thing being handed over.

The verb przekazywać usually takes a direct object in the accusative.

So the structure is:

• Przekazuję = I hand over
• jedwab = silk (the thing being handed over)

Even though jedwab looks the same as the dictionary form, its function here is accusative.

Yes. Polish word order is more flexible than English because case endings show grammatical relationships.

The neutral order here is:

• Przekazuję jedwab wraz z aksamitem.

But other orders are possible, for example:

• Jedwab przekazuję wraz z aksamitem.
• Wraz z aksamitem przekazuję jedwab.

These alternatives change the emphasis, not the core meaning.

Very roughly:

• starting with jedwab emphasizes silk
• starting with wraz z aksamitem emphasizes the accompanying item

Still, the original version is a natural, straightforward order.

Here it is being used as a material noun, similar to English silk or velvet.

So jedwab and aksamit refer to substances or fabrics, not individual objects.

That is why the sentence sounds like handing over silk together with velvet, rather than handing over a specific silk item and a specific velvet item.

In other contexts, Polish can also use such nouns in more concrete ways, depending on what is meant.

Most naturally, it sounds physical here: handing over or transferring the material silk together with velvet.

The verb przekazywać can also be used abstractly, for example:

• przekazywać informacje = to pass on information
• przekazywać wiadomość = to convey a message

But because the objects here are physical materials, the sentence is most likely about an actual transfer of goods or items.

Yes, razem z aksamitem is also possible and means roughly together with velvet.

Compare:

• wraz z aksamitem — a bit more formal / written / official
• razem z aksamitem — natural, common, often a bit more conversational

Both are correct. The choice depends on style and tone more than grammar.
