wiertnicza

Wiertnicza is a Polish term that functions as a feminine form of the adjective related to drilling. In general usage, wiertnicza describes things associated with drilling, such as equipment, techniques, or industries. The underlying noun is wiertnica (drill), and related forms come from the verb wiercić (to drill) and the process noun wiercenie (drilling). Consequently, phrases like przemysł wiertniczy (drilling industry) or techniki wiertnicze (drilling techniques) illustrate typical uses of the term in technical and industrial contexts.

In toponymy, wiertnicza is frequently used as a street name in Polish towns. It reflects a common naming practice that ties local toponyms to historical activities, local geography, or industrial heritage. A street named Wiertnicza typically denotes an urban or suburban road and is one of several Polish street names based on the drilling theme. The form is treated as a proper noun when used in this manner, distinct from its adjectival use in describing objects or concepts.
