Doniczce

Doniczce is the locative and dative singular form of the Polish noun doniczka, which means flower pot. In Polish, doniczka denotes a small container used for keeping potted plants, and doniczce is the form used in the dative and locative cases. Because these two cases share the same spelling in the singular, doniczce appears in contexts requiring either a dative indirect object or location expressed with locative constructions.

Etymology: The base noun is doniczka, a diminutive form of donica (flower pot). The diminutive suffix -czka is a common way to create smaller or endearing versions of objects in Polish, yielding doniczka and its form doniczce in the appropriate cases.

Usage: The form appears in sentences where the noun is either the indirect object of a verb or the object of a locative preposition. For example, with a locative construction: W doniczce rośnie bazylia. This means “Basil grows in the flower pot.” With a dative-like usage after certain verbs: Przyglądam się doniczce. This means “I am looking at the flower pot,” where the verb governs the dative case.
