Potvrzovány

Potvrzovány is a Czech linguistic form, the present passive participle of the verb potvrzovat, meaning to confirm. It is used to describe subjects that are in the process of being confirmed or validated, and it functions as a participle that agrees with the subject in gender and number.

In Czech, potvrzovány appears in the plural and is typically used with plural subjects. It is one of the participial forms derived from potvrzovat, alongside other related forms such as potvrzovaný (masculine singular), potvrzovaná (feminine singular), and potvrzované (neuter singular or plural, depending on agreement). The form potvrzovány expresses a present, ongoing state of confirmation for multiple items or entities.

Usage and examples: potvrzovány is commonly found in formal or technical contexts, including news reporting, legal language, and scientific writing, where processes of validation or verification are described. For example: Tyto výsledky jsou potvrzovány vědeckými analýzami. This indicates that the results are being confirmed by scientific analyses. Another example: Tyto údaje jsou potvrzovány experty. In contrast, the related past participle potvrzený denotes something that has already been confirmed.

Related terms include potvrzení (verification, confirmation) and potvrdit (to confirm, perfective). Potvrzovány is thus a specific grammatical form used to express ongoing confirmation within Czech sentences, contributing to precise description of validation processes.
