A postmodern slant is attempted to be given to ethnolinguistics. As the prevailing mode of ethnolinguistic research is taken to be supraindividual, global, and systemic, the proposal argues for individualization understood as situational (real-world) contextualization of linguistic expressions. The two examined examples involve the Polish prefix nad- ‘appr. over’ and the month-name sierpień ‘August’. The former is scrutinized in relation to some of its attestations set in the context of actual and individual usage, whereas the latter is related to selected special and specific events that are commemorated throughout August. The analysis is framed in terms of individual- and civil society-oriented ethnolinguistics
