Spisie

Spisie is a Polish linguistic term referring to a specific grammatical form of the noun spis, which means a list, inventory, or census. Spisie is the locative singular form of spis, used after prepositions to indicate location or context related to a list. For example, phrases like w spisie (in the list) or spisie rzeczy (in the inventory of items) illustrate its function. The form is primarily encountered in formal, administrative, or historical texts and is not used as an independent concept outside grammar.

The noun spis is common in Polish for lists or inventories and in set expressions such as spis treści (table of contents) and spis ludności (census). Spisie occurs in clauses that involve being within or about a list, typically within scholarly or descriptive passages about documentation and record-keeping.

Etymology and cognates: spis derives from a Proto-Slavic root meaning to list or write. Related terms appear in other Slavic languages with similar meanings, though exact forms vary by language and case.

Usage notes: In contemporary Polish, spisie is mainly encountered in linguistic discussions or in precise, formulaic phrases describing lists. It is not used as a separate, standalone concept outside the grammar of the language.
