Wind is of masculine gender in Polish: ''wiatr''. The terms ''halny'' and ''wiatr halny'' are synonymous. ''Halny'' is also a general masculine adjective derived from the feminine noun ''hala'', a grassy meadow typical of the higher elevations of the Carpathian Mountains and the [[Alps]]. The feminine singular adjective is ''halna'', while the neuter singular and the plural for all three genders of the adjective is ''halne''.</ref> – a [[foehn wind|föhn wind]], when the temperature can rise rapidly.
