Nezajímavost

Nezajímavost is a Czech noun meaning the state or quality of being uninteresting. It refers to information, details, events, or phenomena that do not attract attention or merit emphasis. In encyclopedic or journalistic contexts, it is used to label facts that are considered non-noteworthy.

Etymology and form: The word is formed with the negating prefix ne- attached to zajímavost (from zajímavý, "interesting"). It is a feminine noun, with plural nezajímavosti. In writing, it is commonly contrasted with zajímavost ("an interesting fact") and used to indicate that a piece of information lacks significance for the topic at hand.

Usage: nezajímavost appears in editorial, academic, and everyday Czech to signal that a detail is irrelevant to the main argument or does not add value for the reader. It is a neutral description of information content rather than a judgment about people.

Examples: In English prose one might say, "The exact timestamp is a nezajímavost for this report." In Czech, "Tento detail je nezajímavost pro tuto studii." Such usages show how the term marks content that is not essential to the point being made.

Because it names a quality of information rather than a mood or opinion, nezajímavost often guides omissions and emphasis in written summaries and data presentations.
