Nieprzewidywalnych

Nieprzewidywalnych is the genitive plural form of the Polish adjective nieprzewidywalny, which translates to “unpredictable” in English. The word is formed with the negative prefix nie- attached to przewidywalny (predictable), and it functions as a descriptive modifier in sentences.

Grammatical notes indicate that nieprzewidywalny is an adjective and must agree with the noun it describes in gender, number, and case. The ending -ych marks the genitive plural across genders, so nieprzewidywalnych appears before plural nouns in the genitive case. In practice, you will commonly encounter phrases such as nieprzewidywalnych zjawisk (unpredictable phenomena), nieprzewidywalnych decyzji (unpredictable decisions), and nieprzewidywalnych warunków (unpredictable conditions). The same form can also appear in contexts where the accusative plural of masculine animate nouns coincides with the genitive plural.

Usage and nuance: nieprzewidywalny, the lemma, is used to describe events, behavior, or conditions that are difficult to forecast. Nieprzewidywalnych emphasizes the plural, possessive, or general sense of unpredictability when referring to multiple items or to a generic set of phenomena. The term is common in formal and written Polish, including journalism, academic writing, and policy discussions, as well as in everyday language.
