Urodzeniami

Urodzeniami is a form found in the Polish language that arises from the adjective urodzony, meaning born. In grammar, it represents an instrumental plural form used to describe groups of people defined by being born, and it is primarily of interest in linguistic analysis rather than as a standalone lexical concept.

In everyday and formal prose, however, the more natural constructions for referring to groups defined by birth are phrases such as osoby urodzone or grupa urodzona, or alternatively expressions that use the noun uro­dzenie or the phrase liczba urodzeń when discussing birth events. The instrumental plural form urodzeniami is thus uncommon in contemporary writing and is rarely employed outside grammatically specialized or archaic contexts.

From a linguistic perspective, urodzeniami illustrates how Polish adjectives decline across cases and numbers, producing different endings for masculine, feminine, and neuter genders, as well as plural forms. Its use is governed by syntactic needs rather than semantic necessity, and it may appear in older texts or in registers that require the instrumental case to denote “with the born” or to classify individuals in a grammatical table. In modern usage, language users typically favor clearer, more direct phrasings that avoid the instrumental plural of this adjective.
