bytowego

Bytowego is a form of the Polish adjective bytowy, which derives from the noun byt meaning being, existence, or life. The adjective enters Polish in contexts connected with living conditions, daily life, or the costs and aspects of existence. The specific form bytowego is the genitive singular (masculine or neuter) and appears in phrases where the adjective modifies another noun.

In usage, bytowy is most often found in socio-economic and housing-related expressions. Common examples include wydatki bytowe (costs of living or living expenses) and warunki bytowe (living conditions). The term signals that the described matter concerns daily life, maintenance of existence, or practical aspects of possessing and sustaining a household. In everyday language, the adjective can also describe things tied to daily living, though more neutral or widely used synonyms exist for some contexts (for example, domowy for domestic or mieszkaniowy for housing).

In specialist or administrative Polish, bytowy appears in budgeting, social policy, and housing discussions to differentiate ordinary living requirements from other categories. While it occasionally appears in philosophical or existential discussions, the more common philosophical terminology prefers terms like ontologiczny or dotyczący bytu rather than the everyday-oriented bytowy.
