grzechów

Grzechów is a Polish toponym that may refer to several places within Poland, as well as to a grammatical form of the noun grzech. In geography, Grzechów denotes more than one village or settlement in different parts of the country. The name is a common component of Polish place names and can be found in various voivodeships, with each Grzechów belonging to a local gmina and powiat. Because Polish administrative boundaries change over time, the precise affiliation of a given Grzechów may vary, but the toponym remains in use.

Etymology and origin of the name are typical of Polish toponyms. Grzechów is formed from the noun grzech (sin) with the suffix -ów, a pattern that often signals possession or association. The name may reflect historical ownership, a religious or cultural association, or a personal name such as Grzech, which could have existed in the area’s history. Exact local histories of individual Grzechów can differ and are usually recorded in regional sources or parish records.

Linguistic usage: In Polish grammar, grzechów is the genitive plural form of grzech (sin). It appears in phrases that require the genitive plural, such as bez grzechów (without sins) and liczba grzechów (the number of sins). As a word, it is utility-focused in language contexts and distinct from the geographic uses of the toponym Grzechów.
