demokratycznego

Demokratycznego is the genitive singular form of the Polish adjective demokratyczny, which means "democratic." It is used to describe a masculine or neuter noun in the genitive case, and it also serves as the accusative singular form for masculine animate nouns. In everyday language it appears in phrases such as rząd demokratycznego państwa (the government of a democratic state) or obywatel demokratycznego systemu.

Etymology and usage context: demokratyczny derives from demokracja (democracy), borrowing from Greek via Polish linguistic development. The form demokratycznego is one of several inflected endings the adjective takes to agree with its noun in gender, number, and case. Its feminine counterpart is demokratyczna, with the genitive singular demokratycznej, and the plural forms include demokratycznych for genitive plural.

Grammatical notes: Polish adjectives agree with the nouns they modify. Demokratycznego specifically marks masculine or neuter nouns in the genitive singular, as in charakter demokratycznego prawa (the character of democratic law) or part of longer noun phrases. When the noun is feminine, the appropriate genitive form would be demokratycznej, and for plural nouns, demokratycznych would be used.

Semantic role: as a descriptive term, demokratycznego indicates relation to democracy or democratic principles, processes, or systems. It is common in political, legal, and social discourse, as well as in historical texts describing movements, states, or institutions aligned with democracy.

Related terms: demokracja (democracy), demokratyczny (base form of the adjective), and common collocations such as państwo demokratyczne, system demokratyczny, and ruch demokratyczny.
