Obronnego

Obronnego is the genitive singular form of the Polish adjective obronny, meaning defensive or protective. It is used to describe nouns related to defense or protection, and appears when the head noun is in the genitive case or within phrases that require a genitive construction.

In Polish, obronny is a strong adjective. Its genitive singular masculine and neuter form is obronnego, the feminine genitive singular is obronnej, and the nominative forms are obronny (masculine), obronna (feminine), and obronne (neuter). The plural forms are obronni for masculine personal and obronne for other genders. These forms determine how obronnego or its variants agree with the noun they modify in terms of gender, number, and case.

Common uses of obronnego occur in military, security, and legal language, where defense-related attributes are described. For example, system obronny denotes a defensive system; in genitive constructions one can say systemu obronnego to indicate “of the defensive system.” Another example is przygotowania obronnego, meaning defensive preparation or training. The phrase teren obronnego lub planu may appear in older or more formal text to express possession or association, though more typical constructions use nouns in the proper case with a corresponding genitive adjective.

Etymology: obronnego derives from the noun obrona (defense) with the adjectival suffix -ny, forming obronny (defensive). The genitive obronnego is produced by standard Polish adjective inflection. Related terms include obrona (defense), obronny (defensive), and obronność (defensiveness or resilience).
