Odvozit

Odvozit (odvézt) is a Czech verb meaning to take away, haul away, or transport away by a vehicle. It is transitive and used when something is moved from one place to another, often implying removal from the current site. The non-diacritic form odvozit is common in general writing.

The term is frequently used in waste management, construction, and logistics contexts. Examples include odvézt odpad do skládky (to take waste to a landfill), odvézt materiál na stavbu (to transport material to a construction site), or odvézt náklad (to haul a load). The noun form odvoz denotes the act or process of transporting away. The prefix od- indicates movement away from a location.

Grammatical notes: odvézt is a perfective verb; its imperfective counterpart is odvážet. In present-day Czech, the perfective form is used for completed actions and, in practice, conveys a future meaning with forms such as odvezu, odvezeš, odveze, odvezeme, odvezete, odvezou. The term is primarily Czech, with cognates in related Slavic languages, such as Slovak odviezť.
