Ekonomická

Ekonomická is the feminine singular form of the Czech adjective ekonomický and is used to describe feminine nouns. It primarily means "economic" or "relating to the economy" and agrees with feminine nouns such as teorie, politika, fakulta, situace, or realita (for example: ekonomická teorie; ekonomická politika; ekonomická fakulta; ekonomická situace).

It is formed from the noun ekonomie (economy) and the adjective suffix -ická; the corresponding masculine form is ekonomický and the neuter form ekonomické. The word has been part of Czech since the 19th century and is closely related to the noun ekonomie and the term ekonomika (the field or science of economics).

Usage notes: While ekonomická primarily means "economic" in the sense of the economy or economics, the English cognate "economical" in the sense of thrift is usually translated as úsporný or šetrný in Czech.

In Slovak, the form is also ekonomická and is used similarly; Czech and Slovak share this form and most contexts.
