wynikowi

Wynikowi is the dative singular form of the Polish noun wynik, meaning result or outcome. It is used when the noun is the indirect object or beneficiary of an action and appears in clauses with verbs that govern the celownik (dative). The noun has the following inflected forms: Nominative wynik, Genitive wyniku, Dative wynikowi, Accusative wynik, Instrumental wynikiem, Locative wyniku, Vocative wyniku. In the plural, forms include Nominative wyniki, Genitive wyników, Dative wynikom, Accusative wyniki, Instrumental wynikami, Locative wynikach, Vocative wyniki. The term is common across domains, including science, statistics, sports, and journalism, where it often denotes the measured outcome or score, e.g., wynik badania (the result of the study) or wynik meczu (the score of a match). The dative form wynikowi occurs when the result or score is the recipient of an action, such as in passive constructions: Przyznano nagrodę wynikowi (A prize was awarded to the result). The word interacts with other forms and grammatical rules for masculine inanimate nouns, and its usage follows standard patterns for celownik in Polish.
