rzeczownikowego

Rzeczownikowego is the genitive singular form of the Polish adjective rzeczownikowy. The base adjective rzeczownikowy means “nominal” or “noun-related” and is formed from the noun rzeczownik (noun) with the suffix -owy. In linguistic use, rzeczownikowy is employed to describe words, forms, and constructions that pertain to nouns or that function as nouns.

The concept is commonly encountered in discussions of nominal forms and nominalization. Nominalization, or rzeczownikowanie in Polish, is the process by which a word—often a verb or an adjective—enters the category of a noun. Rzeczownikowy thus denotes properties or phenomena connected with nouns and nominal forms.

Like other Polish adjectives, rzeczownikowy declines for gender, number, and case. Rzeczownikowego is the masculine/neuter genitive singular form, used when the modifying noun is in the genitive case or when the adjective appears in a genitive noun phrase. In practice, the exact function of the form depends on the syntactic context and the case requirements of the surrounding noun.

Related terms include rzeczownik (noun), przymiotnik (adjective), and nominalizacja (nominalization). The concept of nominal or noun-related forms is fundamental in Polish grammar and typology, as it distinguishes noun-like (nominal) structures from verbal or adjectival ones.
