konkretnej

Konkretnej is not a standalone word in Polish; it is the feminine singular inflected form of the adjective konkretna, meaning concrete or specific. It appears in phrases where the noun it describes is feminine and in the genitive, dative, or locative case. The form reflects grammatical agreement rather than a separate lexical entry.

In Polish, adjectives agree with the nouns they modify in gender, number, and case. Konkretnej is therefore used only in feminine singular contexts: genitive (konkretnej kobiety), dative (konkretnej osobie), and locative (o konkretnej sprawie). The nominative feminine form is konkretna, and there are corresponding forms for other genders and numbers.

Examples of usage include phrases such as:

- opis konkretnej kobiety (a description of a specific woman) – genitive singular

- dla konkretnej osoby (for a specific person) – dative singular

- o konkretnej sprawie (about a specific matter) – locative singular

Other feminine nouns can take this form as well, for instance: dla konkretnej sytuacji, w konkretnym kontekście (where appropriate case endings follow the noun). The exact meaning remains “concrete” or “specific,” with the ending signaling grammatical case rather than a different sense.

Etymology: konkretna derives from the root konkret, with the standard Polish adjective ending -na. The feminine singular genitive/dative/locative form, konkretnej, follows typical patterns of Polish adjective declension.
