Jazykovedný

Jazykovedná is the feminine singular form of the Slovak adjective related to linguistics. It describes things that belong to or pertain to the science of language. In use, it appears in phrases such as jazykovedná teória (linguistic theory) or jazykovedná analýza (linguistic analysis).

The term derives from jazyk (language) and veda (science), and it is commonly found in academic Slovak to label research, concepts, or descriptions connected with the study of language. The feminine form agrees with feminine nouns commonly used with the adjective, such as teória, analýza, alebo metóda.

In practice, jazykovedná is a standard descriptor in scholarly texts, dictionaries, and educational materials. It is used to refer to a wide range of topics within linguistics, including subfields like fonetika, fonológia, morfológia, syntax, sémantika, pragmatika, sociolingvistikа, and psycholingvistika. The term can also modify terms describing methods, descriptions of languages, and empirical or theoretical research.

Outside of its formal use, jazykovedná is part of the broader Slovak vocabulary for language study, emphasizing the scientific approach to language description and analysis. It is typically paired with concrete nouns, rather than used as a standalone concept.
