rejestrem

Rejestrem is the instrumental singular form of the Polish noun rejestr, which means register, registry, or record. In Polish grammar, nouns decline for case, and rejestr’s instrumental form is rejestrem. This form is used when the noun functions as the instrument or means by which an action is performed, or in certain syntactic constructions that require the instrumental case.

Morphology and related forms include: nominative rejestr; genitive rejestru; dative rejestrowi; instrumental rejestrem; locative rejestrze; vocative rejestrze. The instrumental singular rejestrem contrasts with other cases to express different grammatical roles within a sentence. The appearance of rejestrem is typical of masculine nouns with the rejestr stem and follows standard Polish noun-formation patterns for instrumental endings.

Usage and context: the instrumental form rejestrem is encountered in formal, legal, or literary Polish, and in constructions that require the instrumental case. In everyday speech, speakers may prefer alternative phrasing that avoids the instrumental, such as using a prepositional phrase with a different preposition or using other cases depending on the sentence structure. As with many Polish nouns, the choice of case depends on the governing verb, preposition, or syntactic role of the noun within the clause.

Etymology: rejestr comes from the Latin registrum through the influence of older European languages, with the Polish form rejestr evolving into various case forms, including rejestrem in the instrumental singular.
