szyi

"Szyi" means "of the neck" in English.

In a sentence

  • Ból szyi jest często spowodowany przez niewłaściwą postawę.

    Neck pain is often caused by poor posture.

    Here, "szyi" is in the genitive case, following "ból" to indicate possession or relatedness (pain of the neck).

  • Założyłem naszyjnik na szyję.

    I put a necklace on my neck.

    In this sentence, "szyję" is used in the accusative case due to the directionality implied by the verb "założyć."

  • Czy mogę zobaczyć zdjęcie twojej szyi?

    Can I see a photo of your neck?

    "Szyi" appears again in the genitive case, showing possession (your neck).
