pomó

Pomó is a term that may refer to several distinct uses in Slavic-language contexts, but it does not correspond to a single widely known concept. In toponymy, Pomó appears as a local toponym in some Polish regions, typically denoting small settlements or hamlets; such uses are sporadic and localized, and precise locations vary across historical maps and records. In linguistic and philological contexts, there is no standard modern Polish word "pomó" as an independent form; appearances are typically fragmentary, dialectal spellings, or transliteration variants from other languages, and require corroboration from regional sources. In other cases, Pomó may be encountered as a proper name in fictional works, or as a personal or family surname variant in Slavic-speaking areas, with documentation depending on local archives. Because of the lack of a single dominant sense, articles about Pomó are typically disambiguated with reference to similarly spelled terms such as Pomo, Pomorskie, or related transliterations. The term should not be confused with Pomo, the name of several Indigenous peoples of California, which is spelled without the diacritic and has a distinct etymology and history.
