czego
"Of what" or "of which."
In a sentence
Czego chcesz na obiad?
What do you want for lunch?
The word 'czego' functions as a genitive form of 'co' (what), asking about the object in a specific context.
Nie wiem, czego on szuka.
I don't know what he's looking for.
Here 'czego' is also in the genitive form of 'co', linked with the verb 'szukać' (to search), which requires the genitive case.
Czego się boisz?
What are you afraid of?
In this example, 'czego' represents the genitive case used with the verb 'bać się' (to be afraid of), which takes objects in the genitive case.
