metrycznej

metrycznej is the feminine form of the Polish adjective metryczny, meaning metric or relating to a metric. It is a grammatical inflection used with feminine nouns in certain cases, such as genitive, dative, and locative. The base adjective metryczny derives from metryka and ultimately from the Greek metron meaning measure. In Polish, adjectives agree with the nouns they modify in gender, number, and case, so feminine nouns in cases like genitive or locative frequently take the form metrycznej.

In mathematical and scientific language, metryczny is used to describe properties defined by a metric. A metric is a distance function that induces a metric space; common phrases include przestrzeń metryczna (metric space) and definicja metryczna (metric definition). The form metrycznej appears in contexts such as koncepcji metrycznej, przestrzeni metrycznej, czy definicji metrycznej, where the noun is in a case requiring the feminine -cznej ending. Beyond pure mathematics, metryczny also relates to the broader notion of measurement systems, for example in phrases like system metryczny (metric system) and jednostki metryczne (metric units), though the exact placement of the adjective can vary with emphasis and stylistic choice.

Overall, metrycznej functions as a grammatical variant rather than a separate concept. It signals agreement with a feminine noun in specific cases and is encountered across mathematical writing, technical descriptions, and discussions of measurement systems.
