Okrywajcych

Okrywajcych is not a standard Polish word. It is typically a nonstandard or misrendered spelling of okrywających, the present participle form derived from the verb okrywać, meaning to cover. In normative Polish, forms like okrywających appear in relative clauses and other constructions where the participle agrees with the noun it modifies. The form okrywajcych may arise from typographical errors, OCR mistakes, or informal writing, but it is not accepted in standard usage.

Morphology and formation: from the verb okrywać, the present active participle has several agreement forms. For masculine personal plural in genitive or accusative, the form is okrywających; for feminine and neuter or other numbers there are corresponding variants such as okrywające or okrywająca. The diacritic marks in the standard spelling are important: okrywających (with ą and ć) is the normative orthography. The nonstandard okrywajcych lacks these diacritics and is generally considered incorrect in formal writing.

Usage: the present participle okrywających (and its related forms) functions as a descriptive modifier in noun phrases, typically within relative clauses. It denotes “those who are covering” or “covering” and must agree with the noun in gender, number, and case. In everyday or informal text, misspellings like okrywajcych may appear, but editors and style guides recommend using the standard okrywających or the appropriate variant (okrywające, okrywająca, etc.) depending on the noun.
