surowego

Surowego is a form of the Polish adjective surowy. It is the genitive singular form used with masculine personal and neuter nouns, and it also appears in feminine genitive singular as surowej. In practice, surowego appears whenever the noun it modifies is in the genitive case, indicating “of raw” or “of uncooked/untreated” in that context. The form is not a standalone word but a grammatical variant of surowy.

Common contexts for surowego include references to food, materials, and other unprocessed items. For example: zapach surowego mleka (the smell of raw milk), cena surowego chleba (the price of raw bread; typically with chleba in genitive), or kolory surowego drewna (the color of raw wood). Because Polish adjectives agree with the noun they modify, surowego will appear in the same position across phrases where a masculine or neuter noun is in the genitive case.

Beyond the literal sense of raw or uncooked, surowy also carries figurative meanings such as strict or severe when describing rules or behavior. In those senses, the corresponding adjectival forms adapt to gender and case just as in standard agreement, with surowej for feminine genitive singular, and surowych for genitive plural or other cases in plural forms.

Declension note: the form surowego is identical for masculine personal and neuter genitive singular. It contrasts with surowej (feminine genitive singular) and with surowych (genitive plural). This pattern is part of standard Polish adjective inflection.
