Etymology 1[edit]

From Middle High German *Pole or *Polen (attested as Polen m pl), from Old Polish polanín, from Proto-Slavic *poľaninъ (literally field-dweller), derived from *pȍľe (field). The Middle High German form may have been a strong noun in -en in light of polnisch; the weak form is then a backformation (cf. Heide, Rabe etc.).

Noun[edit]

Pole m (weak, genitive Polen, plural Polen, feminine Polin)

  1. Pole
