obyek

Obyek is a noun used in several languages to denote an object, thing, or site that is the focus of perception, description, or action. It can refer to tangible items, abstract concepts treated as objects, or places that are studied, described, or visited. In philosophy and linguistics, the term is often linked to the object of perception, thought, or a verb’s action (the direct object in a sentence).

In Polish, the standard word for “object” is obiekt. The form obyek appears mainly as an orthographic variant in historical texts or in nonstandard usage, and is not considered correct in modern standard Polish. For example, phrases like obiekt badań (object of study) or obiekt kultury (cultural object) illustrate the normal spelling and usage.

Outside Polish contexts, the exact spelling and usage of the word can vary by language, but the underlying idea remains the same: an entity that can be described, analyzed, or acted upon. In computer science and information systems, the English term “object” is commonly translated as obiekt in Polish-language technical writing, reflecting the shared conceptual basis with object-oriented thinking.
