Metylowym

Metylowym is the instrumental singular form of the Polish adjective metylowy, meaning “methyl” or “related to a methyl group” in chemistry. It is used to describe nouns in the instrumental case and appears frequently in scientific and technical writing about methyl groups and methylated compounds.

The term derives from the chemical prefix metyl- (methyl), which denotes one-carbon substituents derived from methane. The adjective is formed with the standard Polish suffix -owy, giving metylowy. In its instrumental form, metylowym, it agrees with masculine or neuter nouns in the instrumental case and is often used after the noun, for example roztworem metylowym or reakcją metylową.

In practical use, metylowy and its inflected form metylowym appear in phrases such as grupa metylowa (the methyl group), związki metylowe (methyl compounds), and in process names like metylowanie (methylation) or reakcja metylową (a methylation reaction). They are part of conventional chemical nomenclature in Polish, serving to indicate methyl-related characteristics, reagents, or processes rather than representing a standalone concept.

Summary: metylowym is a grammatical form used to express methyl-related attributes in Polish, functioning within chemical terminology to modify nouns in the instrumental case. The underlying concept is the methyl group or methyl-related chemistry, expressed through the root metyl- and the adjective/metachimical suffixes of Polish grammar.
