Odprowadzajacego

Odprowadzajacego is a Polish linguistic term referring to a specific inflected form of the active present participle odprowadzajacy, derived from the verb odprowadzac/odprowadzac. The base meaning of odprowadzac is to lead someone to a place or to accompany someone to a destination, often to see them safely to a door, station, or school. The present participle odprowadzajacy describes the agent performing this action, and in grammar it can function as an adjective or a noun.

The form odprowadzajacego is the masculine singular genitive (and often accusative) form of the participle. It would appear in phrases where the escorting person is the object or possessive element, for example in descriptive or legal-linguistic texts. In everyday Polish, one would normally use odprowadzac in finite clauses instead of the participle; the participle is mainly found in dictionaries, linguistic descriptions, or stylistic writing.

Etymology: built from od- (prefix meaning away/off) and prowadzać/prowadzać (to lead, to guide), conveying the sense of leading someone to a destination and accompanying them.
