Przerywanych

Przerywanych is a Polish grammatical form, not a separate lemma. It is the genitive plural form of the present passive participle przerywany, which is derived from the imperfective verb przerywać meaning “to interrupt.” The form przerywanych appears when the participle modifies a masculine personal noun in the genitive or accusative plural, for example in phrases like przerywanych rozmów (interrupted conversations).

In Polish, present passive participles like przerywany behave as adjectives or adjectives-like modifiers. They agree with the head noun in gender, number, and case. The genitive plural przerywanych is used with masculine personal nouns in contexts such as describing sets or groups of interrupted items, often within noun phrases where the head noun governs a genitive plural complement (e.g., fragmenty przerywanych rozmów).

Usage and meaning: przerywany (and its form przerywanych) communicates that an action or process was interrupted, stopped, or temporarily suspended. It appears in literary, journalistic, and academic styles to specify the state of being interrupted without asserting completion of the action itself.

Examples:

- fragmenty przerywanych rozmów

- przerywane odcinki programu (note: form changes with the head noun; gwar or style may vary)

Etymology: przerywany comes from przerywać with typical Polish participle formation, using the -any/-ane/-ne endings to reflect gender and number. The genitive plural przerywanych is a standard grammatical variant used with masculine personal nouns and certain other noun phrases.
