nagówek

Nagówek is a term that may refer to more than one thing in Polish. In most contexts, it is encountered as a misspelling of nagłówek, the standard Polish word for a heading, title, or caption.

The standard spelling nagłówek includes the letter ł; dropping it to form nagówek is typically considered an orthographic error in contemporary Polish. Misspellings can occur in informal writing, on keyboards without Polish layout, or in optical character recognition results.

Additionally, Nagówek is the name of several villages in Poland. As a toponym, it designates specific settlements in different regions; the exact location depends on the administrative district. This use treats Nagówek as a proper noun rather than a common lexical item.

Historically or in dialectal texts, related spellings may appear, but standard reference works do not treat nagówek as a separate word with a defined meaning. In modern usage, the term most often appears in proper-noun contexts as a place name rather than a common noun.

In summary, nagówek is not a widely recognized standard Polish word with a distinct meaning; it is typically a misspelling of nagłówek or a geographic proper noun referring to one of several Polish settlements. For the general meaning of heading or title, the correct form is nagłówek.
