zamknity

Zamknity is not a standard Polish word and appears to be a nonstandard or misspelled form of the adjective zamknięty, which means closed or shut. In standard Polish, the forms are zamknięty (masculine), zamknięta (feminine), and zamknięte (neuter or plural). The form zamknity is not recognized in authoritative Polish dictionaries and is rarely used in formal writing.
