    Pronunciation

    Etymology 1

      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

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

      1. Pole
