It conjugates regularly: 'proszę', 'prosisz'. It requires the accusative case of the person asked ('prosić kolegę') and the preposition 'o' + accusative case for the object of request ('prosić o pomoc' — to ask for help). The formulaic phrase 'proszę' means 'please', 'here you go', or 'you're welcome'.
