Abecedním

Abecedním is the instrumental singular form of the Czech adjective abecední, which means “alphabetical” or “in the order of the alphabet.” The term is used to describe things related to the alphabet or arranged according to it. It derives from abeceda, the word for alphabet, and is common in contexts involving organization, indexing, and sorting.

In everyday usage, abecední appears in phrases such as abecední pořádek (alphabetical order) and abecední seznam (alphabetical list). The adverb abecedně denotes the manner of arrangement, as in books sorted abecedně. The instrumental singular form abecedním is used with masculine inanimate nouns in phrases like v abecedním pořadí (in alphabetical order). The form adapts to other nouns through standard Czech agreement when describing different genders and cases.

Grammatical notes: abecední is an adjective that agrees with the noun it modifies in gender, number, and case. Its base form is abecední, and the language provides the usual inflection patterns for Czech adjectives of this type, including the instrumental singular masculine form abecedním. In practice, abecední appears in technical and everyday texts wherever alphabetical organization is discussed or required.
