W imieniu (On behalf of)

To say that you are speaking or acting "on behalf of" or "in the name of" someone else, use the compound preposition w imieniu.

on behalf of
w imieniu

Because this phrase translates literally as "in the name [of]", the person, group, or organization you are representing must always take the Genitive case.

Artisan Baking

If you are speaking for a collective of traditional bakers, you will need the vocabulary to match. Words like zakwas (sourdough) and rzemieślniczy (artisan) will come in handy when describing your crusty baked goods.

Artisan sourdough bread has a crispy crust.
Rzemieślniczy chleb na zakwasie ma chrupiącą skórkę.

As you practice these new baking terms, keep an eye on how w imieniu pairs with Genitive nouns to include your fellow bakers in your success.
