transferowi

Transferowi is the dative singular form of the Polish loanword transfer, a noun used in modern Polish to denote the act or process of transferring something or a transfer event. The term is typical in technical and professional contexts and is derived from the English word transfer. In everyday speech, the English noun transfer is often used in its base form, while transferowi appears when the noun functions as the indirect object within a sentence.

Morphology and decline: transfer is a masculine inanimate noun. Singular forms are nominal: nominative transfer, genitive transferu, dative transferowi, accusative transfer, instrumental transferem, locative transferze. Plural forms include nominative transfery, genitive transferów, dative transferom, accusative transfery, instrumental transferami, locative transferach. This pattern follows the typical declension of a foreign masculine noun ending in -er that has been fully integrated into Polish grammar.

Usage: In Polish, transferowi is primarily seen in written or technical texts, such as IT, finance, logistics, or sports reporting, where the noun transfer is used as a key concept. It is less common in casual conversation, where speakers may prefer native equivalents like przeniesienie (the act of transferring) or przelew/przesyłka for money or data transfers. When referring to the general concept in Polish prose, the nominative transfer is more frequent, with transferowi appearing only where the noun must be in the dative case.
