Pehrání

Pehrání is a term that appears in some Czech-language texts as a nonstandard spelling of the standard noun přehrání. It denotes the act of playing back audio or video content, or the result of such an action. The standard verb is přehrát, and common noun forms include přehrání (the act of playback or a single playback) and přehrávání (the ongoing process of playback). The prefix pře- conveys repetition or return, giving the sense of replay or re-playing.

In formal usage, pehrání is generally considered incorrect; it is usually explained as a typographical error, a dialectal variant, or text where diacritics were dropped. In technical writing and software localization, the standard spellings přehrání or přehrávání are preferred. When diacritics are omitted, texts may temporarily show nonstandard forms, but they do not reflect standard Czech orthography.

Usage examples typically employ the standard forms, such as: Přehrajte video. Zvolte přehrání souboru. Vyberte přehrávání, pokud jde o the ongoing playback process. The concept underlying pehrání corresponds to the English terms “playback” or “replay.” Related Czech terms include přehrát (to play back / to replay) and přehrávání (the act or process of playback). In related languages, cognates exist, such as Slovak prehrať and prehrávanie, which mirror the same root and meaning.
