Przykadowe

Przykadowe is a Polish adjective meaning “exemplary” or “illustrative.” It is used to indicate something that serves as an example, model, or case to illustrate a concept, rule, or principle. The form derives from the noun przykład (example) and the adjectival suffix -owy, producing masculine, feminine, and neuter variants such as przykładowy, przykładowa, and przykładowe, with corresponding plural forms depending on grammatical case.

In typical usage, przykładowe appears before a noun to label an instance that is meant to illustrate a point. Common phrases include przykładowe zdanie (an example sentence), przykładowe dane (sample data), and przykładowe wartości (example values). The term is therefore common in instructional material, tutorials, documentation, and any context where illustrating a concept with concrete instances is useful.

Etymology and semantics: the word combines przykład, meaning “example,” with the adjective-forming suffix -owy, placing it within a family of words that describe exemplars or representative cases. The nuance conveyed by przykładowe is not the general meaning “typical” or “characteristic” as a standalone descriptor, but rather the role of an item as a concrete instance used for demonstration or testing.

Limitations: przykładowe is not a proper noun and does not designate a place or organization in standard usage. If capitalized, it would typically be as part of a stylized name in branding or fictional titles.
