wycig

Wycig is a term found in Polish-language texts that can refer to more than one concept, depending on context. In standard Polish, the noun for a race or competition is wyścig; wycig is generally regarded as a non-diacritic variant or historical spelling, and in modern writing it is usually considered a misspelling rather than a distinct word.

As a proper noun, Wycig may appear as a surname within Polish-speaking communities. It is not commonly documented as a widely used toponym or institutional name in contemporary geography or administration, and there are no widely recognized places or organizations universally known by this spelling.

Orthography and usage notes: The difference between wyścig and wycig lies in the diacritic on the letter s (ś). In older Polish texts or in contexts where diacritics are omitted, wyścig may appear as wycig. In modern standardized Polish, wyścig remains the accepted form for the concept of a race or competition.
