Etymology

Inherited from Old Polish przypadek. By surface analysis, przypadać + -ek. Sense 2, sense 3, sense 4 and sense 1 are semantic loans from Latin cāsus, which displaced spadek. Compare Czech případek, Kashubian przëpôdk, and Russian припа́док (pripádok). Further compare Hungarian eset and German Fall.
