Ivljenjskih

Ivljenjskih is a morphological form found in South Slavic languages such as Croatian, Serbian, and Bosnian. It is the genitive plural form of the adjective ivljenjski, which itself is derived from the root *ivlj*, historically linked to concepts of life or vitality in medieval Slavic lexicon. The suffix *‑ski* marks adjectives that denote belonging or relation, and in the genitive plural the ending becomes *‑skih*, yielding *ivljenjskih*.

In contemporary usage the form is limited to literary or archival contexts where a broad, collective relationship is indicated. It typically precedes a noun to express possession or association, for example: *biblioteke ivljenjskih arhiva* (the libraries of the living archives) or *utvrde ivljenjskih normi* (accumulations of living norms). In such cases the adjective modifies a collective institution, body, or conceptual entity rather than an individual.

The word is not common in everyday speech and appears mainly in historical texts, legal documents, or linguistic research that deals with older Slavic language stages. Scholars note that the construction is analogous to other genitive plural adjective forms like *koštnih* or *zelenih*, signalling plural ownership or affiliation.

Because of its rarity, ivljenjskih is usually referenced only in specialized linguistic glossaries, dictionaries of medieval Croatian, or studies of South Slavic adjective declension. Its usage is largely theoretical, illustrating how adjective stems combined with the *‑ski* suffix interact with case endings in the genitive plural form.
