Questions & Answers about Osobiście wybieram ten kosztorys.

Why is there no word for I in this sentence?

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

Here, wybieram means I choose / I am choosing, so ja is not necessary.

You could say Ja osobiście wybieram ten kosztorys, but that sounds more emphatic, like:

• I personally am choosing this estimate.
• As for me, I choose this one.

So the version without ja is very natural.

What does osobiście mean here?

Osobiście is an adverb. In this sentence, it means personally.

It adds emphasis, showing that this is my own personal choice/opinion/decision.

Depending on context, osobiście can also mean in person, but here the most natural sense is personally.

For example:

• Osobiście się tym zajmę = I’ll handle it personally
• Spotkamy się osobiście = We’ll meet in person

So in your sentence, it is about personal preference or personal involvement, not physical presence.
