narodzi

Narodzi is a term encountered in Slavic language contexts, most often linked to the root narod- which carries meanings related to birth, origin, and creation. In standard Polish usage, narodzi is not typically listed as an independent dictionary lemma; instead it appears as part of broader forms or word sequences connected to birth or origin.

Etymology and semantic field

The root narod- is associated with concepts of birth and the emergence of life or first principles. In Polish, related words include narodziny (birth, the moment of being born), narodzenie (birth or origin of something), and narodowy (national), all of which share the same underlying semantic domain. The meaning circle thus covers physical birth as well as figurative origins or beginnings of ideas, movements, or institutions.

Usage and morphology

Narodzi functions as a stem or substratum within longer words and phrases rather than as a standalone lexical item in contemporary usage. It may appear inside inflected forms or compound words, or as part of archaic or literary constructions in historical texts. For most practical purposes, Polish speakers would rely on narodzić (to be born / to give birth) or narodziny for explicit expressions about birth, rather than the isolated form narodzi.
