teatralnej

Teatralnej is the feminine singular form of the Polish adjective teatralny, meaning theatrical. It is used in the genitive, dative, and locative cases to modify feminine nouns. In ordinary prose, teatralnej functions as a normal inflected form of the adjective.

In practice, teatralnej appears in phrases where a feminine noun is governed by a preposition or a grammatical case requirement. For example, after the preposition z (from) you can have z Teatralnej, meaning “from Theatre Street,” to indicate possession or origin. After na (on) you can have na Teatralnej, meaning “on Theatre Street,” expressing location. The form also occurs in genitive constructions such as ulicy Teatralnej, meaning “of Theatre Street” or “Theatre Street’s.”

Geographically, Teatralna is a common street name element across Polish cities, derived from the noun teatr and the adjective-forming suffix -alny, indicating a relation to the theatre. When used as part of a proper noun, the street name is capitalized (Teatralna), and in the corresponding genitive form it appears as Teatralnej (e.g., ulicy Teatralnej). In general prose, however, teatralnej is written in lowercase as a standard inflected form.

Related forms include teatralny (masculine nominative), teatrualna/teatralna (feminine nominative), and teatralne (neuter/neuter plural forms). The root is linked to teater or teatr, reflecting the connection to theatrical venues and activities.
