kontrakcie

Kontrakcie is the locative singular form of the Polish noun kontrakt, meaning "contract." In Polish, kontrakt is a formal term for a written agreement between parties, commonly used in business, law, and international contexts.

In grammar, kontrakt is masculine and declines regularly. Its locative singular is kontrakcie, used after locative prepositions such as w (in) and o (about), for example: w kontrakcie, o kontrakcie. The standard forms are: nominative kontrakt, genitive kontraktu, dative kontraktowi, accusative kontrakt, instrumental kontraktem, locative kontrakcie. The plural forms are kontrakty (nom./acc.), kontraktów (gen.), kontraktom (dat.), kontraktami (instr.), kontraktach (loc.).

Usage notes: kontrakt is common in formal and legal writing, but in everyday language umowa is more widespread. Phrases like "warunki w kontrakcie" (terms in the contract) or "zmiany w kontrakcie" (changes to the contract) illustrate typical usage of kontrakt in fixed expressions.

Etymology and context: kontrakt is a borrowed term in Polish, reflecting influence from other European languages for contract. The locative form kontrakcie illustrates standard Polish inflection rules and should be distinguished from related forms in other cases and numbers.
