Questions & Answers about Nasza kierowniczka mówi, że dobra atmosfera w pracy pomaga zespołowi.
Why is it nasza kierowniczka and not nasz kierowniczka?
Because nasza has to agree with kierowniczka in gender, number, and case.
- kierowniczka is feminine singular
- the subject of the sentence is in the nominative
- so the possessive adjective must also be feminine singular nominative: nasza
Compare:
- nasz kierownik = our male manager
- nasza kierowniczka = our female manager
So nasza is used because the noun it describes is feminine.
What exactly does kierowniczka mean?
Kierowniczka is the feminine form of kierownik.
It usually means:
- female manager
- female supervisor
- sometimes female person in charge
So:
- kierownik = male manager / manager in the masculine form
- kierowniczka = female manager
In modern Polish, some job titles now have both masculine and feminine forms, and kierowniczka is a standard feminine form.
