Tlenowej

Tlenowej is a grammatical form rather than a standalone concept. In Polish, it is the feminine genitive (and sometimes dative) singular form of the adjective tlenowy, meaning oxygen-related or oxygen-containing. It appears in phrases that attribute a quality to a feminine noun, for example energii tlenowej or drodze tlenowej, signaling a relation to oxygen.

Etymology and function: tlenowej derives from tlen, the Polish word for oxygen, with the adjectival suffix -owy. The feminine base form tlenowa is used with feminine nouns in nominative position (for example energia tlenowa), while tlenowej appears in inflected positions such as genitive or dative (as in energii tlenowej or drodze tlenowej). This pattern is common in scientific and technical vocabulary, where oxygen-related terms form compound expressions.

Usage: The term is widely used in biology, chemistry, and medicine to denote processes, substances, or pathways that involve oxygen. Common phrases include terapia tlenowa (oxygen therapy), oddychanie tlenowe (aerobic respiration), and reakcje tlenowe (oxidation reactions). As a grammatical form, tlenowej thus serves to connect the concept of oxygen to a feminine noun in various syntactic cases.

See also: oxygen; tlenowy; oksydacyjny; oddychanie tlenowe; energetyka tlenowa. In Polish scientific language, tlenowa and its inflected forms are standard tools for describing phenomena related to oxygen across disciplines.
