No. 16,535 in Polish
wioską
"Village" (instrumental singular form of "wioska").
In a sentence
Podróżowaliśmy przez piękną wioską, która była pełna zabytkowych domów.
We traveled through a beautiful village, which was full of historic houses.
In this sentence, 'wioską' is used in the instrumental case following the preposition 'przez', which means 'through'.
Wioską, którą odwiedziliśmy, rządzi starszy sołtys.
The village we visited is governed by an elder headman.
Here, 'wioską' is in instrumental case again, describing an attribute or context in relation to the noun 'sołtys'.
Spotkałem się z mieszkańcami wioską podczas mojego pobytu.
I met with the residents of the village during my stay.
This usage of 'wioską' incorrectly uses instrumental case where genitive 'mieszkańcami wioski' is grammatically correct.
