Chirurgická

Chirurgická is the feminine singular form of the Czech adjective meaning “surgical” or “pertaining to surgery.” It is used to describe feminine nouns connected with surgical medicine, for example chirurgická operace (a surgical operation), chirurgická klinika (a surgical clinic), or chirurgická ordinace (a surgical office or ward). In Czech, adjectives agree with the noun in gender, number, and case, so masculine forms would be chirurgický and neuter forms chirurgické.

Etymology and usage: The word derives from Latin chirurgia, through French chirurgie, and entered Czech as part of medical vocabulary. The root chir- is related to surgery and hand, with the suffix -ická forming the feminine singular, suitable for describing feminine nouns such as operace, klinika, ordinace, and podobně.

In toponymy and institutional names: Chirurgická can appear as a toponym or street name in Czech-speaking areas, typically capitalized when used as a proper name. Such usage often signals historical or geographic connections to medical facilities, districts, or hospitals located nearby, though it functions primarily as a descriptive or commemorative label rather than a standalone concept.
