owiatowych

Owaitowych is not a recognized Polish lemma. It is most likely a misspelling or typographical error for powiatowych, which is the genitive plural form of the adjective powiatowy. The correct base word powiatowy means relating to a powiat, the second-level unit of administrative division in Poland.

Powiatowy is an adjective used to describe things connected with a powiat (county). Poland’s administrative structure consists of three main levels: gmina (municipality), powiat (county), and voivodship (województwo). The term appears in various official and everyday expressions, often in phrases such as powiatowe urzędy (county offices), powiatowy samorząd (county government), or powiatowe drogi (county roads). The word inflects according to gender, number, and case: for example, powiatowa (feminine singular), powiatowy (masculine singular), powiatowe (neuter singular or plural nominative), and powiatowych (genitive plural and accusative plural).

In usage, powiatowy commonly contrasts with terms at other levels, such as gminny (municipal) and wojewódzki (voivodeship). The form powiatowych is frequently encountered in genitive plural constructions, for instance when describing attributes or possessions of multiple county entities, e.g., budżet powiatowych urzędów (the budget of county offices).

Etymology traces powiatowy to powiat (county) with the adjectival suffix -owy, a standard pattern for creating adjectives in Polish. The concept and its adjectival forms are widely found in legal, administrative, and geographic language, reflecting the structured three-tier system of Polish territorial division.
