rozdarty

Rozdarty is a Polish adjective and past participle meaning torn, ripped, or shredded. It describes objects that have been damaged by tearing as well as states that are figuratively fragmented or in conflict. In everyday language the term can apply to fabrics, paper, or other materials, and it can be used metaphorically to convey emotional or moral strain, such as being torn between competing loyalties or duties.

Etymology and grammar: the form derives from the verb rozdrać (to tear apart) with the prefix ro- that signals completion of the action. Rozdarty has gendered forms to agree with the noun it modifies—rozdarty (masculine singular), rozdarta (feminine singular), rozdarte (neuter singular), and corresponding plural forms for each gender. In use, the choice of form follows standard Polish agreement rules.

Usage context: Rozdarty emphasizes visible damage or a strong sense of fragmentation. It appears in literature, journalism, and everyday speech to describe physical wear as well as internal conflict, such as a person feeling rozdarty by competing obligations or by opposing sides in a dispute. It is a common, non-proper noun term and is not typically used as a title or name.
