żonie

"Żonie" means "to (the) wife" in English.

In a sentence

  • On podarował żonie kwiaty.

    He gave flowers to his wife.

    The word 'żonie' is the dative form of 'żona', used here to indicate the recipient of an action, clarifying the indirect object.

  • Rozmawiałem z żonie o planach na weekend.

    I talked with my wife about weekend plans.

    In this case, 'żonie' reflects an incorrect structure; correctly should be 'żoną', with 'z' denoting accompaniment and prompting the instrumental case.

  • Powierzył żonie swoje tajemnice.

    He entrusted his secrets to his wife.

    Here, 'żonie' is again in the dative form, indicating the party receiving trust or responsibility.
