Napjatá

Napjatá is a Czech adjective derived from the verb "napnout," meaning to stretch, tighten, or strain. In its feminine form, "napjatá" describes a state of being tense, strained, or taut. This can refer to physical tension, such as a stretched muscle or a tightened rope. It can also describe a situation or atmosphere that is tense, uneasy, or fraught with anticipation. For example, a "napjatá situace" would be a tense situation, while "napjaté očekávání" implies eager anticipation or suspense. The adjective can also be used in a more abstract sense to describe a person's emotional state, indicating nervousness, anxiety, or unease. The masculine form is "napjatý" and the neuter form is "napjaté." The plural forms are "napjatí" (masculine animate), "napjaté" (masculine inanimate and feminine/neuter plural).
