Questions & Answers about Proszę o ponowne doręczenie.
Here proszę is best understood as I request or I am asking for.
Polish proszę often gets translated as please, but that is not always the full story. In this sentence, it comes from the verb prosić (to ask/request) and literally means something like:
I request re-delivery.
So although English may translate it naturally as Please re-deliver it or I request re-delivery, the Polish grammar is built around asking/requesting.
Yes. The subject ja (I) is omitted.
Polish very often leaves out subject pronouns when the verb ending already shows who is doing the action. In proszę, the ending tells you it is first person singular:
- proszę = I ask / I request
So the full version would be:
Ja proszę o ponowne doręczenie.
But in normal Polish, ja is usually unnecessary unless you want emphasis.
