gramatycznego

Gramatycznego is the genitive singular form of the Polish adjective gramatyczny, which means "grammatical." In Polish, adjectives agree with the nouns they modify in gender, number, and case. The form gramatycznego appears when the noun is in the genitive singular, typically before masculine or neuter nouns.

The genitive singular forms of gramatyczny are gramatycznego for masculine and neuter, gramatycznej for feminine, and gramatycznego in contexts with neuter nouns in genitive singular as well. The plural genitive form is gramatycznych. These endings reflect standard Polish adjective decline patterns: the masculine and neuter take -ego, while the feminine takes -ej in the genitive singular.

Common usage occurs in descriptions of grammar or linguistic analysis, where the adjective modifies a noun in the genitive case. Examples include gramatycznego błędu (grammatical error) and gramatycznego znaczenia (grammatical meaning). The feminine genitive singular would be gramatycznej (for example, gramatycznej reguły).

Etymology traces gramatycznego to gramatyczny, from the noun gramatyka (grammar). The term itself derives from the Greek grammatikos via Latin and other languages, reflecting its connection to scholarly study of language and rules rather than everyday speech.
