Wymaganego

Wymaganego is the genitive singular masculine/neuter form of the Polish adjective wymagany, meaning "required" or "necessary." It is used in contexts where the noun it describes is in the genitive case, a common situation in formal, administrative, or legal language.

Etymology and grammar: from the verb wymagać ("to require") with the adjectival suffix -any, yielding wymagany in the nominative and wymaganego in the genitive. The form wymaganego specifically marks masculine or neuter nouns in genitive singular, while feminine forms differ (for example, wymaganiej lub wymaganej in other cases depending on gender and case). In practice, wymaganego often appears in phrases naming something that must be provided, met, or satisfied.

Usage and examples:

- Nie dostarczono wymaganego dokumentu. (The required document was not provided.)

- System nie spełnia wymaganego poziomu zabezpieczeń. (The system does not meet the required level of security.)

- Przed upływem wymaganego terminu należy złożyć aplikację. (Submit the application before the expiration of the required deadline.)

Related terms and nuances: wymagany is the base form used in nominative masculine singular; niezbędny and konieczny are synonyms that can convey similar meanings in different contexts, with subtle distinctions in emphasis or formality. Wymagany tends to appear in formal, bureaucratic, or contractual language, often describing criteria, standards, or items that must be provided or satisfied.
