Podliehajú

Podliehajú is a form of the Slovak verb podliehať, specifically the third-person plural present tense, and means "they are subject to" or "they fall under." It is used to describe entities, activities, or processes that are governed by laws, regulations, oversight, or another higher authority. The construction often appears in legal, administrative, and policy texts as well as in everyday language to indicate compliance, control, or dependency on a rule or authority.

In practice, podliehajú appears in contexts such as the regulation of business activities, public administration, or compliance requirements. For example, statements like “Subjekty uvedené v zákone podliehajú dohľadu dozorného orgánu” or “Výrobky podliehajú certifikácii” illustrate how an item or group is governed by a rule. It can also describe processes that must adhere to standards or procedures, such as safety, environmental, or financial regulations.

Lexical notes: podliehajú is the plural form; the singular present would be podlieha. The verb is commonly used with a noun in phrases indicating governance or oversight, for example “podlieha zákonu” or “podlieha pravidlám.” Related forms include the infinitive podliehať and the participle podliehajúci, which describe something that is subject to the same conditions.

See also: podliehať, podliehajúci, podlieha zákonu, podliehať kontrole. The term is primarily used in Slovak-language contexts and is characteristic of discussions of legal, regulatory, or administrative subject-to relationships.
