Konkretnih

Konkretnih is the genitive plural form of the adjective konkretan in several South Slavic languages, including Croatian, Bosnian, Serbian and Montenegrin. It functions as a descriptive modifier meaning "concrete" or "specific" and appears with nouns in the genitive plural. It is not a standalone word, but a grammatical inflection used to modify nouns in this case.

The form reflects the standard pattern for adjectives in these languages, with the genitive plural ending -ih. The adjective konkretan itself is generally derived from Latin concretus, and in modern usage conveys a sense of something indivi-dualized, definite, or factual as opposed to abstract.

Usage and examples: Konkretnih commonly appears in phrases that contrast general or abstract concepts with tangible or specific ones. For example, bez konkretnih dokaza means "without concrete proofs," and konkretnih primjera means "concrete examples." In sentences, it agrees in number and gender with the noun it modifies, taking the genitive plural form when the head noun is in genitive plural.

Distribution and context: Konkretan and its genitive plural konkrtnih are found across contemporary Croatian, Bosnian, Serbian, and Montenegrin usage, particularly in formal, academic, legal, and journalistic writing where precision or specificity is emphasized. The exact spelling and pronunciation align with each language’s standard orthography, but the morphological pattern—genitive plural ending -ih for this adjective—remains consistent.
