Minimalni

Minimalni is a non-diacritic spelling that may appear in Czech and Slovak texts as an adjective related to minimalness. The standard orthographies are minimální in Czech and minimálny in Slovak. The absence of diacritics occurs in contexts where accented characters are unavailable, such as computer filenames, URLs, or older or simplified texts.

In general usage, the term relates to minimal concepts, quantities, or styles. It often appears in phrases describing design, architecture, or art that favors simplicity and reduction of form. In formal writing, however, the diacritic forms minimální or minimálny are preferred, while "minimalni" would be considered a nonstandard ASCII variant rather than a separate word with its own meaning.

As a non-diacritic form, minimalni does not denote a distinct linguistic category or recognized technical term. It is primarily a representation variant of the same root that appears in words such as minimal, minimalism, and minimalist in English or in Czech/Slovak phrases like minimalni design in ASCII contexts.
