parlamentarnych

Parlamentarnych is the genitive plural form (and, in many contexts, the accusative plural form) of the Polish adjective parlamentarny, meaning “parliamentary” or “of Parliament.” It is used to describe nouns relating to Parliament or its procedures, institutions, and activities. The word appears in contexts such as political discourse, law, and civic life.

Etymology and meaning. The adjective parlamentarny derives from the noun parliament, itself borrowed into Polish from the French parlement and ultimately from Latin parliamentum. As an adjective, it governs the gender, number, and case of the noun it modifies and expresses a relation to Parliament, such as a system, body, or activity associated with legislative institutions.

Usage and examples. In Polish, parliamentary terms frequently appear in compound expressions. Examples include system parlamentarny (parliamentary system), instytucje parlamentarne (parliamentary institutions), and wybory parlamentarne (parliamentary elections). The form parlamentarnych is used when the noun it modifies is in the genitive plural or accusative plural, for instance: finansowanie kampanii parlamentarnych partii (financing of parliamentary parties’ campaigns) or program parlamentarnych partii (the program of parliamentary parties).

Grammatical notes. Like other Polish adjectives, parlamentarny changes form to match gender, number, and case. Parlamento-related phrases may vary in form depending on the noun they accompany. The base meaning remains “of Parliament” or “parliamentary,” with the -ych ending signaling the genitive/accusative plural form in many constructions.
