Bezdvodného

Bezdvodného is the genitive singular form of the Czech adjective bezdůvodný, meaning unfounded or groundless. The base bezdůvodný is built from the prefix bez- meaning without and the noun důvod meaning reason, with the adjectival suffix -ný to yield “unfounded.” In Czech, adjectives agree with the noun they describe, so the form bezdvodného appears when the noun is masculine or neuter in the genitive case (for example, bezdůvodného důvodu, “of an unfounded reason”).

In standard writing the diacritic form is bezdůvodného; in contexts where diacritics are omitted, the non-diacritic rendering bezdvodného is commonly used. The related feminine and neuter forms are bezdůvodná and bezdůvodné, respectively, with corresponding case endings.

Usage and nuance: Bezdůvodný describes claims, accusations, decisions, or explanations that lack justification or evidence. It is common in formal prose, journalism, and legal language. For example: “Toto tvrzení je bezdůvodné” means “This claim is unfounded,” and “bezdůvodné obvinění” means “an unfounded accusation.” The term pairs with antonyms such as opodstatněný (well-founded) or podložený (supported).
