Questions & Answers about Nadawca czeka.

What exactly does nadawca mean?

Nadawca usually means sender—the person who sends something, for example a letter, parcel, email, or message.

Depending on context, it can sometimes feel a bit formal or technical, like the sender field on a package or document.

Why does nadawca end in -a if it means a male person or a masculine noun?

That is a very common point of confusion.

Even though many Polish nouns ending in -a are feminine, nadawca is masculine. Polish has a small group of masculine nouns that end in -a, especially nouns referring to people, such as:

• mężczyzna = man
• kolega = male friend / colleague
• kierowca = driver
• nadawca = sender

So the ending -a does not always mean a noun is feminine.

What case is nadawca in here?

It is in the nominative singular, because it is the subject of the sentence.

So in Nadawca czeka, nadawca is the person doing the action of waiting.
