Nepríde

Nepríde is a form of the Slovak verb prísť (to come) formed with the negation prefix ne-. It denotes that someone will not come or is not coming. In Slovak, the present tense is often used to express near-future actions, so nepríde commonly conveys a future non-arrival, as in plans or announcements, though it can also indicate a general absence in the present context.

Usage of nepríde appears in declarative sentences, conditional clauses, and reported speech. It is employed to state that a person will not attend an event, arrive by a deadline, or participate in an activity. Examples include: On nepríde na stretnutie. Ak nepríde, začneme bez neho. Nepríde dnes večer. The form is specifically third-person singular; other persons take corresponding negated forms such as neprídem (I will not come), neprídeš (you will not come), nepríde (he/she will not come), neprídeme (we will not come), neprídete (you will not come), neprídu (they will not come).

Etymologically, nepríde is derived from the verb prísť with the negative prefix ne-, a standard pattern in Slovak for negating verbs. It is not a standalone noun or proper name and appears across formal and informal registers, including spoken language and written texts.
