Praca i projekt
The vocabulary of a Polish standup, a scope discussion and a deadline that is slipping.
wdrożyć
verb · perfective
- EN
- to implement, to roll out
- RU
- внедрить
Wdrożyliśmy nowy system w marcu.
We rolled out the new system in March.
The standard corporate verb for putting something live. Wdrożenie, the noun, is what appears on every project plan.
harmonogram
noun · masculine
- EN
- schedule, timeline
- RU
- график, план-график
Harmonogram przesunął się o dwa tygodnie.
The schedule has slipped by two weeks.
The project timeline. Grafik is a duty roster of who works when — a different word for a different thing, and mixing them in a meeting is confusing.
zakres
noun · masculine
- EN
- scope, range
- RU
- объём, диапазон
To nie wchodzi w zakres projektu.
That's outside the scope of the project.
Zakres obowiązków is a job description, literally the range of duties — the phrase in every Polish employment contract.
uzgodnić
verb · perfective
- EN
- to agree on, to align
- RU
- согласовать
Musimy uzgodnić termin z klientem.
We need to agree the date with the client.
Agreeing a thing between parties, not agreeing with an opinion — that is zgadzać się. One prefix apart and not interchangeable.
wnioskować
verb · imperfective
- EN
- to conclude, to infer
- RU
- делать вывод
Z danych można wnioskować, że trend się odwrócił.
From the data one can infer that the trend has reversed.
The verb from wniosek in its conclusion sense. Formal, and exactly right in a written analysis.
opóźnienie
noun · neuter
- EN
- delay
- RU
- задержка, опоздание
Mamy dwutygodniowe opóźnienie.
We're two weeks behind.
From późno, late. Z opóźnieniem means 'late' of a thing; spóźniony is late of a person.
usterka
noun · feminine
- EN
- fault, defect, glitch
- RU
- неисправность, сбой
Zgłosiłem usterkę wczoraj.
I reported the fault yesterday.
Smaller than an awaria, which is a proper breakdown. Landlords and IT desks both use this exact word.
zlecenie
noun · neuter
- EN
- a commission, a work order
- RU
- заказ, поручение
Pracuję na zlecenie, nie na etacie.
I work on contract, not on staff.
Umowa zlecenie is a specific Polish contract type, and the difference from an etat — a salaried post — decides your tax and your health cover.
na bieżąco
phrase · adverb
- EN
- up to date, as you go
- RU
- в курсе, по ходу дела
Trzymaj mnie na bieżąco.
Keep me posted.
From bieżący, current. Być na bieżąco is to be up to speed; robić coś na bieżąco is to handle it as it arrives.
ustalenia
noun · plural
- EN
- what was agreed, the arrangements
- RU
- договорённости
Podsumuję nasze ustalenia mailem.
I'll summarise what we agreed by email.
The noun every Polish meeting ends on. Zgodnie z ustaleniami — as agreed — opens the follow-up message.
