Nevrátil

Nevrátil is a Czech term meaning "not returned" or "unreturned." It is the masculine singular past participle of the verb vrátit with the negation prefix ne-. The word functions as an adjective or past participle and takes inflected forms according to gender and number, such as nevrátil (masculine singular), nevrátila (feminine singular), and nevrátilo (neuter singular), with corresponding plural forms in context.

In usage, nevrátil describes someone or something that has not come back. It is used in everyday language to refer to a person who did not return from a journey, mission, or place. For example, Voják se nevrátil. (The soldier did not return.) In historical or narrative writing, the term can convey absence or unresolved disappearance and is common in reporting or prose dealing with missing persons or unresolved losses.

The term is distinct from nevratný, which means irrecoverable or non-returnable and is typically applied to objects or abstractions rather than people.
