niadaniem

Niadaniem is the instrumental singular form of the Polish noun niadanie, a term that refers to a meal associated with breakfast. In contemporary standard Polish, the normal term for the morning meal is śniadanie, and niadanie is generally found only in historical, literary, or regional contexts. As a result, niadaniem is most often encountered in texts aiming to evoke an older or more rustic tone rather than in everyday speech.

Grammatical usage of niadaniem is primarily as a form used in contexts where the noun niadanie is in the instrumental case. Because niadanie itself is not the everyday word for breakfast in modern Polish, the instrumental form niadaniem tends to appear infrequently and usually within stylized writing. In normal conversation one would typically use phrases built around śniadanie or other constructions such as podczas śniadania (during breakfast) rather than employing niadaniem.

Notes on form and register: niadaniem is a standard inflected form within Polish grammar, but its appearance signals a departure from modern, everyday language. It may appear in poetry, historical narratives, or regional speech where the author chooses to reproduce an archaic or provincial flavor. For most practical purposes, niadanie and niadaniem are supplanted by śniadanie and related expressions in current usage.
