A podyachy or podyachiy (Template:Langx; from Template:Langx) was an office (bureaucratic) occupation in prikazes (local and upper governmental offices) and lesser local offices of Russia in the 15th to 18th centuries. The podyachyes were classified into junior, middle and senior. A senior podyachy (старший подьячий) could be a deputy to a dyak and helped him in some duties. Junior and middle ones were usually employed only as scribes.[1]
