godzinowy

Godzinowy is a Polish adjective meaning “hourly” or “based on hours.” It is formed from the noun godzina (hour) and the suffix -owy, producing a word used to describe things that are measured, charged, or determined by the hour.

In everyday language, godzinowy describes rates, fees, or time-based measurements. Common collocations include stawka godzinowa (hourly rate), wynagrodzenie godzinowe (hourly wage), and bilet godzinowy (one-hour or hourly ticket). The term also appears in contexts referring to time-based systems, limits, or services.

Grammar-wise, godzinowy is declined like other -owy adjectives and agrees with the noun in gender and number. For example: godzinowy bilet (masculine singular) and stawka godzinowa (feminine singular). When describing plural nouns, the form changes to match the noun, as with other adjectives.

Typical uses span employment, pricing, transportation, and event tickets, wherever payment, duration, or limits are expressed per hour. The word helps distinguish hourly arrangements from those measured by other time units or fixed amounts.
