Questions & Answers about Liczymy na to, że będziesz nadzorować proces i optymalizować go jak najszybciej.
How does jak najszybciej work in this sentence to mean 'as quickly as possible'?
The phrase is built using the superlative adverb najszybciej (the fastest / most quickly) and placing the word jak (how/as) in front of it. In Polish, combining jak with any superlative adverb or adjective is the standard formula for expressing 'as [blank] as possible'.
Why do we say Liczymy na to, że instead of just Liczymy, że?
The verb liczyć (to count) pairs with the preposition na (on) to mean 'counting on', which must be followed by a noun or pronoun. Because the thing you are counting on is an entire clause ('that you will supervise...'), Polish uses the pronoun to as a dummy placeholder. Literally, it means 'We are counting on this, that...' You cannot attach the conjunction że directly to a preposition.
Why are nadzorować and optymalizować in the imperfective aspect here?
Both 'supervising' and 'optimizing' are framed as continuous, ongoing duties rather than one-time, completed actions. Therefore, the sentence uses the imperfective future tense, which is formed here by combining będziesz with the imperfective infinitives of both verbs.
What is go referring to, and why is it placed after the verb?
The pronoun go is the accusative form of on (he/it) and refers back to the masculine inanimate noun proces (the process). In Polish, short pronouns like go try to avoid the very end of a sentence. Because the sentence continues with jak najszybciej, the pronoun can safely tuck right between the verb and the adverb.
