doliczony

Doliczony is a Polish adjective formed from the verb doliczyć, meaning to add to a total or to count in. The form doliczony is used to describe something that has been included in a tally, aggregate, or calculation as a result of such addition. It is used in contexts where a quantity, number, or time has been increased by adding another element, such as people, items, or minutes.

The word appears in statistics, census, accounting, payroll, administration, and sports reporting. For example, a “doliczony” worker is an additional employee who has been included in the headcount, and a “doliczony czas gry” refers to the added time in a game. The adjective agrees with the gender and number of the noun it modifies (doliczony, doliczona, doliczone, etc.).

Doliczony is often contrasted with related forms: doliczyć is the active verb “to add to/to count in,” whereas doliczony denotes the result of that action. It is typically used in formal or technical writing rather than everyday conversation.

Etymology and usage notes: the word comes from doliczyć, with the prefix do- intensifying the sense of adding to a total. In practice, doliczony emphasizes inclusion after an adjustment or recalculation, rather than the act of adding itself. It can modify persons, times, numbers, or items that have been brought into a collective total.
