narracjami

Narracjami is the instrumental plural form of the Polish noun narracja, meaning narration or narrative. In Polish grammar, the instrumental case is used to indicate the means by which an action is performed or to mark certain kinds of sources. Therefore narracjami is typically used when referring to multiple narrations or to several narrative sources that are used as material or evidence. A common construction is posługują się narracjami, meaning they rely on or make use of narrations.

Etymology: narracja derives from the Latin narrare “to tell.” The instrumental plural ending -ami is a standard suffix for feminine nouns in Polish, producing narracjami.

Usage: In scholarly writing—especially literary studies, narrative theory, and ethnography—narracjami appears when discussing several distinct narrative variants or when describing the means by which researchers access stories. It is not a separate thematic concept, but a grammatical form that enables precise reference to multiple narrations.

Example: Badacze posługują się narracjami różnych źródeł. Translation: Researchers use narrations from various sources.
