Dokonalá

Dokonalá is the feminine singular form of the Czech adjective dokonalý, meaning perfect, complete, or flawless. It describes feminine nouns and agrees with them in gender, number, and case. The form is used both attributively (before a noun) and predicatively (in a sentence with a linking verb). For example: Ta žena je dokonalá (That woman is perfect) or dokonalá krása (perfect beauty).

In terms of grammar, dokonalá follows the standard Czech adjective declension. Its nominative feminine singular form is dokonalá, while other cases vary according to the noun it modifies. Examples include dokonalé in the genitive and neuter singular, dokonalou in the accusative, and dokonalé in the locative, with corresponding changes in surrounding words to reflect case, number, and definiteness.

Usage and collocation: dokonalá is commonly used with feminine nouns such as krása (beauty), systém (system, feminine in some contexts), nebo technologie (technology). The phrase dokonalá iluze (a perfect illusion) is a typical idiomatic pairing, as is dokonalá výkonnost (perfect performance) in formal or literary styles. While the word conveys a strong sense of flawlessness, it is often employed in evaluative or comparative contexts, sometimes with qualifiers to soften or intensify meaning.

Etymology and related terms: dokonalá derives from dokonalý, which is built from the prefix do- plus a base meaning to finish or complete, related to the Czech noun dokonání (completion). Related concepts include dokonalost (perfection) and hoàn? in dictionaries as the noun form of the concept.
