Wywodzi

Wywodzi is the third-person singular present tense form of the Polish verb wywodzić, which means to derive, originate, or trace back to. In everyday usage, the reflexive form wywodzi się is common and means “originates from” or “traces back to.” The form wywodzi (without the reflexive pronoun) can appear in sentences where the subject performs the action of deriving or originates something, though in modern Polish the reflexive construction wywodzi się is far more typical when discussing origins.

Etymology and sense: wywodzić is built from the prefix wy- (out, away) and the verb wodzić (to lead, to draw, to guide). The combined sense is to lead out from a source, i.e., to derive or originate from a source. This semantic core is preserved in branches of linguistics, history, genealogy, and cultural studies, where scholars describe origins, ancestry, or the lineage of ideas.

Usage: The phrase wywodzi się z is widely used to indicate origins. Examples include: Słowo wywodzi się z języków słowiańskich, Pochodzenie tej tradycji wywodzi się z czasów średniowiecza, To pojęcie wywodzi się z filozofii starożytnej. The construction emphasizes tracing back to a source or foundation, rather than immediate causation.

Possible scope: Wywodzi as a verb form is not a standalone noun and does not denote a separate entity. In standard reference works, the term is treated as a grammatical form of wywodzić rather than as a proper name or subject of its own.
