Other Plural Adjectives Declension

To learn adjectives declension we divided them into 5 groups:
  • Masculine Singular Adjectives
  • Feminine Singular Adjectives
  • Neuter Singular Adjectives
  • Masculine Personal Plural Adjectives
  • Other Plural Adjectives
From this division, we can deduce that Other Plural Adjectives mean adjectives describing nouns, which are not masculine personal.
Examples
PolishEnglish
szczęśliwe mamyhappy mothers
wysokie budynkitall buildings
odważne kobietybrave women
mądre książkiclever books
wysportowane dzieciathletic children
otwarte oknaopened windows
To decline other plural adjectives you have to use one of the groups of endings:
  • group I - use it for adjectives ending in -y in singular masculine Nominative Case
  • group II - use it for adjectives ending in -i in singular masculine Nominative Case
Here are all the endings:

Notes:
  • Right-hand endings are the same as left-hand endings, the only difference is additional -i- or -y exchanged to -i
  • Nominative Case, Accusative Case, and Vocative Case are the same
  • Genitive Case and Locative Case are the same
  • Genitive Case, Dative Case, Instrumental Case, and Locative Case are the same as for masculine personal plural adjectives
