Pozorovacího

Pozorovacího is the genitive singular masculine/neuter form of the Czech adjective pozorovací, meaning observational or relating to observation. The adjective pozorovací derives from the noun pozorování (observation) and the verb pozorovat (to observe). In usage, pozorovacího appears in phrases where a noun is governed by another word in genitive, a common pattern in formal and technical Czech. It signals that the head noun pertains to observation or monitoring.

The form is typically found in scientific, administrative, and educational texts, where it helps specify that a period, program, protocol, device, or activity is tied to observation. For example, pozorovacího období means the observation period, and pozorovacího programu means the observation program. The construction is part of standard declension for adjectives of the -ovací type; other case and gender forms include pozorovací (dictionary form for masculine or feminine in some positions), pozorovacího (genitive singular), pozorovacím (instrumental singular), and so on, depending on gender and grammar.

Etymology: pozorovací is built from pozorování (observation) with the suffix -ovací, which forms adjectives describing relation to the noun. See also related terms such as pozorování (observation) and other derivations using the same root.
