Plnový

Plnový is an adjective found in Czech and related Slavic linguistic contexts. It is formed from the prefix plno- meaning full or complete, combined with the adjectival suffix -vý, producing a word that signals fullness or adequacy in a specified respect. The underlying root plno- is common across Slavic languages, contributing to a family of terms that express completeness or full value.

Usage and attestation: Plnový is not a common entry in standard dictionaries and tends to appear mainly in specialized, technical, or regional texts, or within compound terms. Because its usage is limited and context-dependent, it is not typically encountered in everyday language. When translated into English, its sense can vary with context and may correspond to expressions such as “full-fledged,” “full-scale,” “complete,” or “fully valued.”

Relation to other terms: Plnový is related to other Czech expressions that convey fullness or sufficiency. For example, plnohodnotný conveys something like “fully valuable” or “with full value,” while úplný is a more general word for “complete.” The precise nuance of plnový depends on the surrounding term and domain.

Etymology: The word derives from the Slavic prefix plno- meaning full, combined with a standard adjectival suffix -vý, following a pattern found in other adjectives formed to express a property or quality.
