Opustí

Opustí is the third-person singular form of the Czech verb opustit in the future tense. It means “he/she/it will leave” or “will abandon,” and is used for a single, completed act of leaving or abandoning something or someone.

As a perfective verb, opustit denotes a discrete action. The future form opustí therefore conveys that the act will be carried out and completed in the future, as opposed to its imperfective counterpart opouštět, which denotes leaving as an ongoing or habitual action. Opustit is transitive, commonly taking a direct object or a place as its complement (for example, opustí dům, opustí rodinu, opustí město).

Etymology: opustit is formed from the verb pustit (to let go, to release) with the prefix o-, producing a sense of removing or leaving behind. The form opustí follows the standard Czech pattern for the future tense of perfective verbs.

Past forms are opustil (masculine), opustila (feminine), opustili/opustily (plural). The imperfective counterpart is opouštět, whose third-person present is opouští and whose future is usually expressed with auxiliary construction (e.g., bude opouštět).

In usage, opustí appears in narrative, legal, and descriptive contexts to denote a planned, definite leaving action, such as migration, relocation, or abandoning a relationship. It is widely understood in Czech-language texts and media.
