witaminami

Witaminami is the instrumental plural form of the Polish noun witamina, meaning vitamin. In general Polish grammar, witaminami is used to indicate accompaniment or the means by which something is provided, and also appears in nutrition labeling and product descriptions where vitamins are referenced as a component.

Etymology and form: The word witamina comes from the term vitamin, adapted into Polish as witamina. The feminine noun forms regular plural declensions: nominative plural witaminy, instrumental plural witaminami, and genitive plural witamin. Thus witaminami is used when the vitamins are presented as the means or ingredients in a phrase.

Usage: Witaminami commonly occurs after prepositions that govern the instrumental case (for example, with, by means of, enriched with). It is also used in fixed expressions relating to nutrition and food labeling. Examples include phrases like "produkt wzbogacony witaminami z grupy B" (a product enriched with B-group vitamins) or "żywność z witaminami" (food with vitamins). In everyday language, the form appears where vitamins are described as part of a set of ingredients or nutritional properties.

Notes on related forms: Witamina refers to a single vitamin or the concept in general. Witaminy is the nominative plural (the vitamins). Witaminami is specifically instrumental plural, while witamin is the genitive plural form used in some constructions.

Witaminami thus functions as a grammatical form rather than a distinct concept, used to express vitamins as an instrumental element in a sentence.
