Chudobnými

"Chudobnými" is a Slovak word that translates to "poor" in English. It is the instrumental plural form of the adjective "chudobný." This grammatical form is used when referring to multiple poor individuals or things in a context that requires the instrumental case, such as indicating means or association. For example, one might say "hovorí s chudobnými" which means "he speaks with the poor." The concept of poverty itself, the state of lacking sufficient material possessions or income, is often discussed in sociological, economic, and humanitarian contexts in Slovakia, as it is in many other countries. Discussions might revolve around the causes of poverty, its effects on individuals and communities, and strategies for poverty reduction. The term "chudobnými" specifically refers to the plural, often encompassing groups of people experiencing hardship. Its usage is generally descriptive and devoid of inherent judgment, although societal attitudes towards poverty can vary.
