Gerry:  Since were on the subject, Piotr what is the Polish word for
god?
       
bóg (Acc./Gen. boga, Dat./Loc. bogu, Instr. bogiem, Voc. boże). -- P.

Gerry here:  And which gender is "boga"?
It's the genitive of bóg, a masculine noun. Like English God, Polish Bóg also serves as the Supreme Being's name.
Of course a feminine noun can be formed from bóg; it's bogini 'goddess' -- a common noun, not a name.
