Dziennikarski

Dziennikarski is a Polish adjective meaning related to journalism or journalistic. It describes things connected with the profession of journalism, such as work, standards, practices, or content produced by journalists.

Origin and forms: The term is derived from the noun dziennikarz (journalist) with the standard adjectival suffix -ski. It has gendered forms, including masculine singular dziennikarski, feminine singular dziennikarska, and neuter singular dziennikarskie, with corresponding plural forms. The adjective is used to describe journalistic rather than diary-related matters.

Usage: Dziennikarski is common in Polish media discourse and academic writing about journalism. It appears in phrases such as dziennikarskie standardy (journalistic standards), dziennikarska etyka (journalistic ethics), dziennikarska praktyka (journalistic practice), and dziennikarskie źródła (journalistic sources). It can modify nouns denoting jobs, tasks, or content, for example dziennikarska praca or dziennikarski materiał. The term should not be confused with dziennikowy, which relates to diaries or daily records, or with dziennikarstwo, the field or craft of journalism.

Notes: The word is primarily used in Polish and often appears in bilingual or translation contexts where the sense of “journalistic” is required. It serves to distinguish aspects tied to journalism from other kinds of media or writing.
