Polish

Etymology

Inherited from Old Polish dom, Proto-Slavic *domъ, from Proto-Indo-European *dṓm, from root Proto-Indo-European *dem- (to build) and thus related to English dome, domain, demesne, domestic, etc. First attested in 1395.[1]

  • Rhymes: -ɔm
  • Syllabification: dom

Noun

  2. house (building)
    dom aukcyjnyauction house

Usage notes

The form "domie" in the locative and vocative is considered dated.

It must be noted, however, that -ie is the regular and productive locative suffix in modern Polish for roots ending with m or n. This is reflected in derived terms, such as brand names ending with -dom, and place names (e.g. Dom) for which the ending is always regularized to -ie in locative.

Compare syn and pan for the same exception.
