Nacházím

Nacházím is a Czech verb form with two primary uses. In transitive sense it is the first-person singular present of nacházet, meaning “I find” or “I am finding,” used to indicate discovering or locating something. In a locational sense it forms with the reflexive particle se to create nacházet se, and then in the first person it is used as “I am located” or “I find myself” in a place.

Grammatical properties and conjugation. The non-reflexive verb nacházet is imperfective and in the present tense yields the forms: já nacházím, ty nacházíš, on/ona nachází, my nacházíme, vy nacházíte, oni nacházejí. When used with the reflexive particle se to express location, the present tense becomes: já se nacházím, ty se nacházíš, on se nachází, my se nacházíme, vy se nacházíte, oni se nacházejí. The diacritics (á and í) mark vowel length, and stress typically falls on the first syllable.

Usage notes and examples. The verb is common in everyday Czech and is used in both search/discovery contexts and in statements of location. Examples: “Dnes nacházím klíče.” (Today I am finding the keys.) “Kde se nacházím?” (Where am I located?) “Auto se nachází u domu.” (The car is located by the house.) When used with a direct object, nacházím usually governs a noun in the accusative case; with se, it describes position or existence in a place.

See also. Related verbs include nacházet (to find, to discover) and nacházet se (to be located). The forms reflect Czech verb aspects, conjugation patterns, and the distinction between transitive finding and stationary location.
