sekcji

Sekcja is a Polish noun meaning a part or division of a larger whole, a subdivision within an organization or document, or a cross-section in fields such as anatomy or architecture. In everyday use it can refer to a distinct segment of a book or report (for example, a section of an article) as well as to a department or unit within an institution (for instance, a police section or a military section). In medicine the term appears in phrases like sekcja zwłok, which denotes an autopsy.

In medical and scientific language, sekcja is used to describe the act or result of cutting or dissection, often to study structure or pathology. In anatomy, a sekcja may appear as a dissection procedure; in engineering or architecture, the related notion of a cross-section is expressed with different terms (such as przekrój), though sekcja can still be used in general sense to mean a cross-sectional part of a system or body.

Grammatical note: sekcja is a feminine noun. Its various case forms include sekcja (nominative singular), sekcji (genitive singular, dative singular, locative singular, and genitive plural), and sekcje (nominative plural). The form sekcji is thus common in several contexts and can indicate different syntactic roles depending on the sentence.

Etymology and related terms: sekcja derives from the Latin sectio, meaning cutting or division, via Polish. Related words include sekcyjny (section-related), sekcja zwłok (autopsy), and terms for cross-sections in specific disciplines, such as przekrój in architectural or geometric contexts.
