Domylnych

Domylnych is the genitive plural form of the Polish adjective domylny, meaning default, standard, or conventional. It is used to describe nouns in the genitive plural that refer to default characteristics, settings, values, or configurations. In Polish, adjectives decline to agree with the noun, and domylnych appears specifically in contexts where the modified noun is in the genitive plural.

In practical usage, domylnych commonly occurs in technical and formal language. Examples include phrases like lista domyślnych ustawień (a list of default settings) or brak domyślnych wartości (the absence of default values). It is worth noting that in everyday Polish speakers sometimes prefer constructions using the noun-adjective phrase wartości domyślne (default values) rather than focusing on the genitive form of the adjective, depending on syntactic role.

Grammar notes: domylnych is the genitive plural ending for the adjective domylny and thus signals a possessive or relational meaning within a plural genitive noun phrase. The base meaning remains “default” or “standard,” and the form adapts to case and number as required by the noun it modifies. While domylnych marks a relation to defaults, many contexts in Polish prefer the more common compound form with domyślne in other cases (for example wartości domyślne for “default values”), where the adjective agrees with a plural noun in the nominative or accusative case.
