Bodová

Bodové is a Czech adjective derived from the noun bod, meaning point, dot, or position. In ordinary usage it describes things that relate to points, scores, or a system that operates on a point-based basis. The term is common across several domains where quantitative scoring or ranking is used.

In sports and competitions, bodové hodnocení or the bodové skórování refers to the tally of points earned by competitors or teams. In education, bodové hodnocení denotes assessment based on points earned for tasks, tests, or assignments, often expressed as a total score or percentage. In transport and traffic policy, a bodový systém assigns penalty points to drivers for infractions, with accumulated points influencing license status or sanctions.

Outside formal systems, bodové can appear in data analysis and decision-making contexts, where a model or evaluator assigns bodové (point-based) scores to observations or options to indicate quality, likelihood, or risk. The prefix and suffix combination is productive in Czech, producing phrases such as bodové hodnocení, bodový systém, or bodové ohodnocení, each illustrating a scoring or point-based approach.

There is no single universal definition of bodové beyond its general implication of point-based measurement. Its precise meaning depends on context, ranging from sports statistics to educational grading or regulatory penalties. The term is typically used in neutral, descriptive language to characterize systems or assessments that rely on points rather than qualitative judgments alone.
