Pozastaví

Pozastaví is a Czech word that translates to "suspend" or "pause" in English. It is a verb in the third-person singular present tense, derived from the infinitive verb "pozastavit". The word is commonly used in various contexts to indicate a temporary cessation of an activity, process, or state.

In everyday language, "pozastaví" can describe actions such as a car engine being temporarily stopped, a conversation being interrupted, or a planned event being put on hold. For example, "motor pozastaví" means "the engine will stop" or "the engine is stopped". "Výroba pozastaví" could refer to "production will be suspended".

The term also appears in more formal or technical contexts. In legal or administrative settings, it might indicate the suspension of a license, permit, or legal proceeding. In computing, it can describe the pausing of a process or a program. The general meaning remains consistent: an interruption or temporary halt before a potential resumption. The specific nuance often depends on the surrounding words and the overall context in which it is used.
