midzynarodowo

Międzynarodowo is a Polish adverb meaning internationally, used to describe actions, relations, or phenomena that involve more than one nation or the international community. It denotes something operating across borders, within a global context, or in relation to multiple states, rather than being confined to a single country.

Etymology: The adverb is derived from the adjective międzynarodowy (international). The base combines między- (between) with narodowy (national). The suffix -owo forms the adverbial form międzynarodowo.

Usage: In diplomacy, law, business, science, and culture, międzynarodowo clarifies the scope as international. Examples include: firma działa międzynarodowo; projekt ma charakter międzynarodowy; organizacja ta jest międzynarodowo uznawana. Media may report on wydarzenia międzynarodowo istotne. The term is often contrasted with krajowy or lokalny when distinguishing domestic from global scope.

Nuance: While roughly equivalent to the English “internationally,” its use emphasizes a cross-border or global dimension rather than a purely domestic one. It commonly appears in phrases such as operować międzynarodowo, współpracować międzynarodowo, or uzyskać międzynarodowe uznanie.

See also: międzynarodowy, międzynarodowość. In English, the closest translation is “internationally,” while related Polish terms describe the international character or scope of activities.
