klasie

Klasie is a Polish grammatical form. It is the dative and locative singular form of the feminine noun klasa, meaning class or group. Polish nouns decline for case and number; for feminine nouns ending in -a like klasa, the dative singular and locative singular share the same ending -ie, yielding klasie.

In usage, klasie appears in phrases that require the dative or locative case. It is not a separate lexical item with its own meaning; its function is grammatical. For instance, the locative form occurs after certain prepositions to indicate location, as in "w klasie" meaning “in the class.” The dative can appear in constructions indicating indirect object or recipient when the noun is governed by a dative context, though this is less common in everyday speech.

Etymology and related forms: The noun klasa derives from Latin classis; the inflected form klasie reflects Polish inflection patterns and phonology. Related terms include the base word klasa and its other inflected forms such as klasy (genitive singular and nominative plural in some contexts) and klasie in other cases.
